Double Trouble
When I was eight, I wanted
a toy and needed $10 to buy it. But, as usual, I was broken. I decided to ask
my 11-year-old sister, Kathleen, for a loan. I went to her room, 1her for the cash. Laughing,
she agreed to2 me the money, but added, "I will charge
you 10 percent compound interest every 3until you pay me back."
"Compound
interest---what's that?" I asked.
"Well, interest is
what you call the4money borrowers have to pay
back on a loan," she explained. "Compound interest means that the
interest payments get bigger and bigger the5you take to pay back the
loan. To repay the loan, you will need to give me $11 after one month. If you
wait two months to pay me back, your6 will grow from $10 to $11. So I'll be charging
you interest on $11. Then I will add that interest to the $11 you already owe
me, for a 7of $12.10. That's what you'll
owe after two months."
"Sure. I get it," I said. Though
truthfully, I was getting 8.
Kathleen lent me the money,

I needed to buy another toy I wanted 10. I put off paying my
sister for a month. After another month, I11about the loan.

shoulder.
"Sorry, kiddo. That's
mine. I'm 13on your debt."
"Huh?" Then I
remembered the loan. "Hey! How can it be that much? I 14borrowed $10."
"True," she said,
"but interest has been compounding for eight months. Now you 15me $21.43." She
paused, then added. "You can pay me the $1.43."
I 16to believe that a $10 loan
could more than double so quickly. Much to my 17, my sister got her pencil
and tablet and showed me exactly how it all added up.

Kathleen's 19, but this time, I got the
basic idea of compound interest. I 20the hard way that borrowing
money can be "double trouble" in no time.
