This exercise illustrates just how fast exponential functions grow in the long term. Suppose you start work for a company at age 25. You are offered two rather unlikely retirement options. Retirement option 1: When you retire, you will receive $15,000 for each year of service. Retirement option 2: When you start work, the company deposits $2500 into a savings account that pays a monthly rate of 1.3%. When you retire, the account will be closed and the balance given to you.
