Career & Education Planning
When it comes to investing, starting early is a key ingredient for success as it helps to optimize the benefits of compounding. Hence, the best time to start investing is at birth, literarily. But parents are often at a crossroads. The fear that exposing their kids to too much wealth can compromise their motivation and derail their career, and the need to provide them with the necessary ingredients to be successful.
Consider the two scenarios here:
Zain’s father invested $100 every month in an account that returned 10% annually from birth until he turned 20. At age 20, the total value of the account was $71,826. That is a total of $24,000 contributed by her Dad and returns of $47,826 generated over the 20 years.
If Zain’s father had waited until she was 10 before he started investing in a similar account that returned 10% annually, at 20 she will have less money in the account even if her father contributed $300 monthly. At age 20, she will have a total sum of $59,595. That is a total of $36,000 contributed by her Dad and returns of 23,595 generated over the 10 years.
Kids have a special place in the heart of every parent, and our team has created a special account to cement that place. KidsVest is created to empower children and give them unlimited possibilities when it matters the most, set them to take on the world, and help them be the best version of themselves.
Account Minimum & Fees
In most instances, our starting asset size for individuals is $100,000 or its equivalent. This requirement may be waived for certain clients with a strong commitment to improving financial outcomes for themselves and their families.
Fees: Our fees start at 1.00% of the total value of the client’s advised asset and decrease as the asset size increases.
