The S&P 500 is an index that tracks the 500 largest companies in the US, and it's an excellent long-term investment option. Thanks to John Bogle, we've been able to invest in this index with little money since the 1970s. Over the decades, the S&P has shown an average annual return of 10%. If you had invested $1,000 in 1965, you would have $250,000 today, and if you contributed $100 monthly, you could have up to $3 million. To invest, I can use online brokers or funds like Vanguard, available at banks or financial platforms.
