$100 in NVDA in January 2016.


$0.80 split-adjusted at the time.
$100 / $0.80 = 125 shares.
NVDA today is about $200 a share.
125 × $200 = $25,000.
$100 turned into $25,000.
250x in 10 years.
But here is the part nobody tells you.
Most people would have sold at $5.
Then sold the rest at $20 because it doubled.
Then bought back at $80 because they FOMO'd.
Then sold again at $50 in a panic.
The math only works if you do not sell.
The hardest part of investing is not picking the winner.
It is holding the winner long enough to win.
Time in the market beats timing the market.
Every single time.
