It didn't take a fortune. It took starting.
*Hypothetical illustration for education only — assumes a constant average annual return, compounded monthly, with no fees or taxes. The 11% figure is the S&P 500's average annual total return (dividends reinvested) over the 40 years ending Dec 2025. Past performance doesn't guarantee future results; real returns vary and you can lose money. Not investment advice.
