How much would I have if I'd invested?
Pick something you wish you'd bought, choose a year, and see exactly what that money would be worth today. The S&P 500, Apple, Bitcoin, gold — the answer is one slider away.

The math, briefly
A lump-sum what-if is simple: your money buys a number of shares at the price on your start date, and that same number of shares is worth today's price now. Investing a bit each year instead — dollar-cost averaging — spreads your buying across good years and bad, which usually softens the ride.
We also show the result in today's dollars, because a 2010 dollar and a 2026 dollar aren't the same thing. Inflation quietly eats returns, and ignoring it makes every old investment look better than it really was.
Or flip it around with skip the latte: tell us a small daily habit — a $5 coffee, a $2 soda — and see what that money could have become if you'd invested it instead of spending it. Small sums, a long runway, and compounding do the rest.
