If you put $100 into $TSLA in 2010, you would be "rich" today.

Well...Let’s play it out if you somehow did nothing & held until right now.
You would have $1,005 by the end of 2015
and did nothing
Then watched that $1,005 climb to about $1,589 by the 2018 peak
and still did nothing
Then watched $1,589 get cut to $1,049 in the late 2018 crash
and still did nothing
Then watched it rip to around $25,741 at the November 2021 peak
and still did nothing
Then watched $25,741 collapse to about $12,871 at the October 2022 bottom
and still did nothing
Then watched $12,871 explode to a little over $26,950 by late 2025
and for some reason finally decided to do something...
Then yes, $100 in Tesla in 2010 would be worth a bit over $26,950 today.
The lesson is the same.
Everyone fantasizes about the final number.
Almost nobody has the stomach to sit through the volatility to create that...
