| Value in 2007 | 100000 | ||||
| Value in 1982 | 25000 | ||||
| CAGR= ((End value / Beg value)^(1/n))-1 | =((100000/25000)^(1/25))-1 = 5.7% | ||||
| If compounded each year @ 10% interest | =(25000)*((1+10%)^25) = 270867.65 | ||||
| So they have earned interest of 5.70% over 25 years on their initial investment of 25000 | |||||
| If 25000 invested at 10% rate 25 years ago it would have become 270867.65 which is more than what they have earned. | |||||
| Hence, They should not be bragging about how investment savvy they are because they have earned lesser returns. | |||||

Case Study The failure of Washington Mutual Closure of Seattle-based saving and loan association Washington Mutual (WaMu) was by far the biggest bank failure in the history of the United States.

Case agreed to assume WaMu’s debt, which saved taxpayers from having to bail the firm out. Depositors were...

Look for mutual gain The third major block to creative problem-solving lies in the assumption of a fixed pie: the less for you, the more for me. Rarely if ever is this assumption true. First of all, both sides can always be worse off than they are now. Chess looks like a zero-sum game; if one loses, the other wins — until a dog trots by and knocks over the table, spills the beer, and leaves you both worse off...
