My boyfriend opened an account yesterday at his bank. he put in just over $1000, and was told if he doesn't touch it until he's 60(he's 20 now) it will be worth over a million dollars. If he continues to put money in it will be a multi million account. He can withdraw from it only 6 times a year. This is what his grandpa did when he was younger, and now he's a multi millionaire. What kind of account could it be?
Answer:
Sounds like a Money Market account. If the account grants withdrawals, it can not be a retirement account.
Note: Bankers tend to over exagerate the income potential of the accounts that they’ve.
If you invest $1000 a year for 40 years and earn 5%, you’ll have approximately $125,000 and the end of 40 years. A nice chunk of change, but not $1 million. Plus, 5% is impossible to get on a money market account these days.
Answer:
could be a annuity fund. Book Mark it-> del.icio.us | Reddit | Slashdot | Digg | Facebook | Technorati | Google | StumbleUpon | Window Live | Tailrank | Furl | Netscape | Yahoo | BlinkList
