You invest $250/mo. over 12 months that equals $3,000 invested per year.
$250*12=$3,000/per year invested
$3,000 per year for 20 years equals $60,000 invested.
$3,000*20=$60,000 invested
8% of $60,000 is $4,800/per year.
0.08*$60,000=$4,800
$4,800 per year for 20 years equals $96,000 dollars earned on investments over 20 years.
