The Biggest Gains Come After Year 10
Everyone wants to double their money now.
But real wealth in stocks doesn’t work that way.
Amazon, Google, Tesla… all looked like “just okay” companies in their first 10 years.
The real magic—96% of their total value—came after that.
Why?
Because compounding takes time.
The early years are quiet.
The late years are explosive.
But most investors don’t wait long enough.
They sell after 2 years of “meh” returns…
Right before the rocket takes off.
So what’s the lesson?
If you’ve done the work and picked a great business—give it time.
Holding through the boring years is what separates average investors from wealthy ones.
In long-term investing, patience isn’t just a virtue—it’s a weapon.
