Sure but the growth of your portfolio is

[molten nacelle]

9% return rate?

In simple wealth, I read that for index funds the return amount is closer to 4%

Also for retirement accounts, I know that for atleast the 401k you gotta pay some fee (10%?) for withdrawing before turning 60 right

Honestly I'm not crazy well versed in investments. I've only read Intelligent Investor and Simple path to wealth but I still need to consolidate

Also btw

are these numbers randomly generated?

I made something similar back in the day

or just static 5% growth per year?

Yeah prob best to have something static

I made a pet project by running simulations like that

there would be heuristics that would randomly assign promos, market fluctuations etc

funny to see how wildly different something can be

In one simulation universe, I apparently never make it past L4 and my portfolio is -4 million

In another I'm an L9 with a portfolio of 4.5 billion

Yeah I have a big leniency for reaching L4 within 2 years max

L5 within 5 years sounds reasonable

and I think I'm smart enough socially to make it to staff level relatively quickly like 8 years or so
