Scenarios
Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $51,079 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +558.3%.
Lump sum instead — $34,200 all at once in Mar 1998: $726,473 (+2024.2%) — lump sum came out ahead.
Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (May 2026): $385.19 on $400 invested (-3.7%).
⚠ 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.
