Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $158,835 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +68.9%.

Lump sum instead — $64,000 all at once in May 1973: $377,442 (+489.8%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Jun 2008): $32,431 on $21,900 invested (+48.1%).

⚠ Price returns only — dividends are not included. This understates the true return of dividend-paying shares, and any comparison against crypto (which pays no dividends) is biased against equities by roughly the dividend yield, compounded.
