==Cumulative growth== Human capital is distinctly different from the tangible monetary capital due to the extraordinary characteristic of human capital to grow cumulatively over a long period of time.<ref>{{cite web |work=Investopedia |title=Human Capital: The most overlooked Asset Class |author=David Allison |url=http://www.investopedia.com/articles/younginvestors/09/human-capital.asp#axzz1Wb8QpjGs}}</ref> The growth of tangible monetary capital is not always linear due to the shocks of [[business cycle]]s. During the period of prosperity, monetary capital grows at relatively higher rate while during the period of [[recession]] and depression, there is deceleration of monetary capital. On the other hand, human capital has uniformly rising rate of growth over a long period of time because the foundation of this human capital is laid down by the educational and health inputs.<ref>{{cite book|last=Becker|first=Gary|title=Human Capital: A theoretical and empirical analysis with special reference to Education|year=1994|publisher=The University of Chicago Press}}</ref> The current generation is qualitatively developed by the effective inputs of education and health.<ref>{{cite book|last=Hansen|first=W. Lee|title=Education, Income and Human Capital|year=1970}}</ref> The future generation is more benefited by the advanced research in the field of education and health, undertaken by the current generation. Therefore, the educational and health inputs create more productive impacts upon the future generation and the future generation becomes superior to the current generation. In other words, the productive capacity of future generation increases more than that of current generation. Therefore, rate of human capital formation in the future generation happens to be more than the rate of human capital formation in the current generation. This is the cumulative growth of human capital formation generated by superior quality of manpower in the succeeding generation as compared to the preceding generation.
