Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $49,851 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +64.5%.

Lump sum instead — $33,600 all at once in Sep 1998: $178,379 (+430.9%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Feb 2026): $705.24 on $700 invested (+0.7%).

Backtests use monthly closing prices. Stock dividends aren’t reinvested, so long-run equity returns are understated.

Hypothetical — this backtests the group’s cap-weighted index, which isn’t directly investable. A real tracker fund adds fees and tracking difference, and the index only spans months where enough members have history.
