Warren Buffett, who has amassed 99% of his wealth since the age of 50, revealed that the secret lies in “compound.” When you lend money, interest is added to the principal as income.

The same principle applies to reading: even if your reading speed is slow, consistently reading just a few books each day can lead to a wealth of knowledge.
