💡 #ThriveThursday Insight “Even through multiple market crises since 2000, money invested and left to compound has delivered roughly an average return of 8% per year.” That’s the power of time in the market, not timing the market — a principle that BlackRock’s Larry Fink echoed on CNBC earlier this week. ✅ The lesson? Start early. Stay consistent. Let compound interest work its magic. ✅ The challenge? Resist knee-jerk reactions when markets wobble — the long view is your ally. Your future self will thank you. #InvestSmart #LongTermGrowth #CompoundInterest #FinancialWisdom 📌 See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.

#WisdomWednesday Markets wiggle. That’s normal. Short swings ≠ a signal to panic. Remember: Focus on time horizon, not today’s headline. Stick to your plan (diversified, auto-investing, rebalanced). Keep an emergency fund so you’re not forced to sell low. Calm > reactive. Process > prediction. 🙏📈 #FaithAndFinance #WealthWithWisdom #SmartMoneyMoves #PlanWithPurpose 📌 See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.
