People underestimate what real compounding looks like over time.

A dollar at 11% annual returns becomes $8.94 in 20 years.
That same dollar at 20% annual returns becomes $53 in 20 years.
Keep going to 50 years and the gap becomes obscene.
Now imagine doing that with hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Adding options income on top of that every year.
Reinvesting all of it.
The number at the end is not something most people let themselves actually believe is possible.
It is.
