Cost of Delay - Senario 1

Assumption:
1. Both Prospect A and B are age 30, they want to save for their retirement by the age of 55.

2. Prospect A saves 10 years with payment amount of RM6,000 with 8% interest.

3. Prospect B delays his saving 5 years later. He pays continuously until the age of 55 with the same payment amount and interest as Prospect A.

Conclusion:
1. Prospect A gets RM297,780.80 by the age of 55.

2. Prospect B is Postponing 5 years and he would get RM296.537.53 by the age of 55.

3.To get around the same savings balance with a 5 years delay, Prospect B would need to save 20 years instead 10 years. The amount invested of prospect A is RM60,000 and the Prospect B is RM120,000. The amount Invested of Prospect B is DOUBLED in comparison to Prospect A.
