Question 2

How much would $100 a month in S&P 500 be worth today?

Investing $100/month in the S&P 500 over 10 years (DCA strategy) typically grows to $20,000–$25,000, depending on the start date, due to compound growth and market appreciation. Use the DCA Calculator on HowMuch? to simulate any amount.

Question 3

What is dollar cost averaging (DCA)?

Accepted Answer

Dollar cost averaging (DCA) means investing a fixed amount regularly (e.g. $100/month) regardless of price. It reduces the impact of volatility compared to investing a lump sum, and is considered a low-risk long-term investment strategy.

Question 4

How much would I have if I invested in Bitcoin 5 years ago?
