Building Wealth - Recipe for success:
- Start with some cash…
- Earn a high rate of return…
- Add lots of time…
- How important are time and return?

- Diversified (hopefully!) collection of stocks, bonds and other assets.
- Individual investments are often evaluated on how they change the characteristics of the portfolio.
- Risk
- Chance of economic loss.
- Sometimes measured as a variation in return.
- Expected Return
- Anticipated gain of a specific period of time.
- Often evaluated as compensation for taking certain types of risks.
Efficient Market Hypothesis - Idea that every security at every point in time is fairly priced.
- Implication is that prices are unpredictable
- Controversial
Investment management performance - At any point in time, many investment managers are beating the market for the month, quarter or year. A couple years later, most of these managers are no longer performing so well.

- Warren Buffett
- Peter Lynch
- Sir John Templeton

- What is the future value of a $1,000 investment 3 years from now if it receives a 9% annual return compounded (A) annually, (B) quarterly, and (C) continuously?
- Solution:
- (A) Future value = $1,000 X (1 + 0.09)3 = $1,295
- (B) Future value = $1,000 X (1 + 0.0225)12 = $1,306
- (C) Future value = $1,000 X e0.09x3 = $1,310
