Time value of money | Interest and debt | Finance & Capital Markets | Khan Academy

Why when you get your money matters as much as how much money. Present and future value also discussed. Created by Sal Khan.

Watch the next lesson:

Finance and capital markets on Khan Academy: If you gladly pay for a hamburger on Tuesday for a hamburger today, is it equivalent to paying for it today? A reasonable argument can be made that most everything in finance really boils down to "present value". So pay attention to this tutorial.

Congratulations. You explained something in 8 minutes and 16 seconds what neither of two college instructors could explain in an hour+ lecture. Thank you for this video!

I love how thorough Sal is. He explains things so calmly, correctly and just really hits the fundamental concepts which you build upon. I could listen to him all day.

Very concise and to the point. Provided exceptional clarity on a subject the text attempted to explain through nearly 70 rambling pages.

[TheLifeTrekker]

Time preference plays an important role in setting interest rates. If there was no interest, there would not be any (financial) incentive to forgo current consumption for later satisfaction. Immediate satisfaction is more preferable than delayed but Fiat money can distort the true state of economic conditions.
