Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $58,045 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +1772.3%.

Lump sum instead — $37,500 all at once in Jun 1995: $11,300,000 (+30033.3%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Aug 2021): $6,276 on $6,100 invested (+2.9%).

⚠ 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.
