Here's the historical returns on the stock market since 1930: https://www.macrotrends.net/2526/sp-500-historical-annual-returns

In only two years in that time did it achieve the returns Joe is talking about the last one being 1954. An average year is something like 10% overall but only 7.5% over the last 30 years.

I wish I’d bought ten shares of Apple 30 years ago. Sigh.

Well, if you had saved $15,000 a year for the last 10 years would be 150,000… Which would have netted you about $5000 in July

Apple stock split 7-for-1 in 2020, so, yeah.

That 10 shares would be 70.
