Brenton invested an average of $250 per month since age 39 in various securities for his retirement savings. His investments averaged a 6% annual rate of return unitl he retired at age 66. Given the same monthly investment and rate of return, how much more would Brenton have in his retirement savings had he started investing at age 25? Assume monthly compounding.

2. Brenton would have saved $201,636.72 by age 66. This is from age 39 to 66. 

He would have saved $531,664.27 by age 66, if he started at 25

$531,664.27 - $201,636.72 = $330,027.55 - The difference between age 39 and age 25.
