A series designed to help all the new people flooding into & entering Crypto/Investments daily who get thrown into the rabbit hole so to speak and everything is new to them.
Bitshares 101 Focus/Resources Section for New Crypto Folks now included near the end of each post - starting just prior to Christmas 2017. BTS is a Decentralized Exchange and much more. Very undervalued!
It is a TLDR / Short Form Series, covering ONLY one thing each episode in blue collar, easy to understand language to give a SHORT OVERVIEW of the term or lesson of the day.
It is specifically designed this way to keep it short and simple.
People can then search out extra info if they wish.
I've never seen a regular series or resource running on Steemit to continually address this basic need so I decided to do it.
TERM OF THE DAY:
What is....
' Time Value of Money - TVM ' ?
--
The time value of money (TVM) is the idea that money available at the present time is worth more than the same amount in the future due to its potential earning capacity. This core principle of finance holds that, provided money can earn interest, any amount of money is worth more the sooner it is received. TVM is also referred to as present discounted value.
Breaking Down...
' Time Value of Money - TVM ' :
--
Money deposited in a savings account earns a certain interest rate. Rational investors prefer to receive money today rather than the same amount of money in the future because of money's potential to grow in value over a given period of time. Money earning an interest rate is said to be compounding in value.
-- Basic Time Value of Money Formula and Example:
Depending on the exact situation in question, the TVM formula may change slightly. For example, in the case of annuity or perpetuity payments, the generalized formula has additional or less factors. But in general, the most fundamental TVM formula takes into account the following variables:
FV = Future value of money
PV = Present value of money
i = interest rate
n = number of compounding periods per year
t = number of years
Based on these variables, the formula for TVM is:
FV = PV x (1 + (i / n)) ^ (n x t)
For example, assume a sum of $10,000 is invested for one year at 10% interest. The future value of that money is:
FV = $10,000 x (1 + (10% / 1) ^ (1 x 1) = $11,000
The formula can also be rearranged to find the value of the future sum in present day dollars. For example, the value of $5,000 one year from today, compounded at 7% interest, is:
PV = $5,000 / (1 + (7% / 1) ^ (1 x 1) = $4,673
-- Effect of Compounding Periods on Future Value:
The number of compounding periods can have a drastic effect on the TVM calculations. Taking the $10,000 example above, if the number of compounding periods is increased to quarterly, monthly or daily, the ending future value calculations are:
Quarterly Compounding: FV = $10,000 x (1 + (10% / 4) ^ (4 x 1) = $11,038
Monthly Compounding: FV = $10,000 x (1 + (10% / 12) ^ (12 x 1) = $11,047
Daily Compounding: FV = $10,000 x (1 + (10% / 365) ^ (365 x 1) = $11,052
This shows TVM depends not only on interest rate and time horizon, but how many times the compounding calculations are computed each year.
Resharing this one..... This is a KEY everyday thing to understand in the markets. So many new people coming daily and posts often also miss people in other timezones..... 2 things I try and remember, to help people and be aware of, thanks.

Please note -- I will have limited internet access for awhile -- so PLEASE do not be upset that I cannot reply right away, or to everyone. I am dealing with some changes, and will have limited time online and will be happy if I get a few blog posts up a week.
This has really upset some people but I do not force my opinions on others, or need to communicate every detail of my life or issues, most people do not care anyways. I invested around 10 hours or more a day on Steemit most of my first 13 mths here, trying to build community, put out content and engage people, help and donate to people, and I just do not have that time in my life right now, and that includes for replies and voting/curation.
I have done my best, sorry if you do not understand like some are clearly having a problem with. It's a blogging platform, and I will do my best at everything, and to keep blogging.
Carry On.

This is related to the principles of inflation/deflation --- Economics and Monetary Policy 101 -- something we see a lot in the crypto space.
It is why your (our) fiat based, government backed dollars are worth NOTHING - like the policy behind them.
