    Please explain how to turn $210k into $1m with interest alone. I’ll even be generous and say you can take an additional 35 years of time to grow said interest.

      Getsmarteraboutmoney.ca - go to their compound interest calculator. If you have 210k and put it into VEQT on questrade and set up a DRIP, in 35 years you’ll have something like $3 million

        Can you link to the actual calculator you’re using for that? That page you linked is just their homepage. I’ve never seen a calculator that accounts for a DRIP.

          It’s just a compound interest calculator https://www.getsmarteraboutmoney.ca/calculators/compound-interest-calculator/

          Use this one to calculate the value with inflation (average historically is 3.25% over the last century) https://www.wealthmeta.com/calculator/compound-interest-calculator

        No, you have 35 years to earn interest, because the first 35 years was spent saving the principal, remember? And remember how I said with interest alone? So no more $500/month contributions either.

        So with that calculator, $210k at 4% interest for 35 years puts you at $849,611.66 with monthly compounding.

        So not a million.
