Compounding means earning returns on your past returns, so growth accelerates over time. The gap between the balance line and your total contributions is pure compound interest — and it widens dramatically in the final years. Educational tool, not investment advice.

▶ Run in Python

Data Inspector

Final balance$691,150

Total contributed$190,000

Interest earned$501,150

Governing equation

A = 10, 000 (1 + \frac{0.070}{12})^{360} + 500 \cdot \frac{( 1 + \frac{0.070}{12} ) ^{360} - 1}{0.00583} = $691, 150

Reading this result: Rule of 72: at 7.0% a year, money roughly doubles every 10.3 years — about 2 doublings across your 30-year horizon. Each $500/mo contribution then earns returns on its own past returns, so the balance curve pulls away from your flat contribution line. Because compounding is exponential, most of the $501,150 in interest is created in the final years — time in the market matters far more than the amount. Educational tool, not investment advice.

Geometric Brownian motion models a price with constant drift and random volatility — the assumption behind Black-Scholes. Running hundreds of simulated paths reveals the full distribution of outcomes, not just an average. Educational tool, not investment advice.

5th percentile$0

95th percentile$0

Governing equation

S_{t + Δ t} = S_{t} e^{(0.07 - \frac{0. 2 ^{2}}{2}) Δ t + 0.2 Δ t Z}, \tilde{S}_{1} \approx $0

Reading this result: Median outcome is about $0, just under the drift-only $107 — GBM compounds in log-space, so volatility always pulls the typical path below the average.
