Have about $4000 to invest.. Is it even worth it?

[kv968]

So is $4000 really enough to be worth placing in mutual funds?

Let's see:

$4k @ 6% for 30 years = $23,000
for 40 years = $41,150

$4k @ 7% for 30 years = $30,450
for 40 years = $59,900

$4k @ 8% for 30 years = $40,250
for 40 years = $86,900

$4k @ 9% for 30 years = $53,000
for 40 years = $125,600

Yeah, I'd say it's worth it

And lastly $4K invested at 25% for 30 years is $3,231,174
