Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $18,971 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +198.5%.

Lump sum instead — $15,300 all at once in Dec 2013: $108,082 (+606.4%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Jun 2026): $298.24 on $300 invested (-0.6%).

⚠ 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.
