Compare how much you'd have to save each month if you start saving now or in 10 years: If you have 20 years to save, you’ll have to save $243 per month to reach your goal If you have 10 years to save, you’ll have to save $643 per month to reach your goal In this example, you’ll earn $18,875 more in interest when you have 20 years to save instead of 10.

   Using automatic deposits can be a good way to save money. Contact your financial institution to transfer a set amount of your pay automatically in a savings account. Consider increasing the amount of the automatic transfer as your pay increases. Adding a small amount on a regular basis can make a big difference in the long term.
