How does planting tropical hardwood trees compare with leaving my money in a savings account or CDs to accumulate interest for 20 years?

0

It is difficult to predict what future interest rates on savings accounts and CD’s will be. However, as an example, if you were to put $4,992, the price of 100 20-Year Final Harvest Elite Teak Clone trees, into savings or CD’s today at 3% compound interest and allowed the interest to accumulate for 20 years, you would have a total of $9,016 at the end of the 20 years. That compares to approximately $118,000 projected cumulative net harvest proceeds over the next 20 years from 100 20-Year Final Harvest Elite Teak Clone trees. See Teak Projections.
