HERE IS THE SECRET
Numbers don’t always resonate-until they do.
When I talk about the Stars model’s returns, people nod politely.
“The S&P has averaged 13% per year over the last 14 years.”
“The Stars model has returned between 20-30% annually.”
Most people shrug. But when I say:
“If you invest $1,000 at 30% per year, you’ll have $2.6 million in 30 years.”
Suddenly, I have their attention.
Here’s the reality: The difference between a good return and a great return isn’t just percentage points-it’s millions of dollars over time.
- Investing $1,000 per year for 5 years at 30%? → $8.3M in 30 years.
- At 25%? → $2.7M.
- At 20%? → $850K.
And if you wait just 5 years to start, you’d need to invest $10,000 all at once to catch up.
The takeaway?
Time matters, but choosing the highest return matters even more. That’s why the 40/40 version of the Stars model is built for maximum growth.
The best time to start? Yesterday. The second best time? Today.
