According to my calculation (which is probably wrong) you would actually have approximately 3.8 million today not 25. The .com bubble would have caused a 93% drawdown.

And the person who definitely wrongly commented in the screenshot is a stupid fuck. Thanks for doing the math and sharing.

Happy to help. I hate plausible bullshit posts like the OP. I'm sure I get tricked into believing things like this all the time without even realizing it. For anyone wanting to backtest similar investing ideas https://valueinvesting.io/backtest-portfolio is a pretty good tool.
