Annotated Bibliography

In this Investopedia post, Heyford aptly captures the idea of the time value of capital. It covers topics like the current and future value of money, emphasizing the importance of starting to save early. However, since it is not peer-reviewed, Investopedia is not a credible source of knowledge in academic literature. I'd also use the details to further my understanding of why students should start saving early.
