What this calculator shows, and what it doesn't
The compound growth formula is simple: money grows proportionally to itself over time. The higher the rate and the longer the period, the more dramatic the result. A dollar invested at age 30 is worth significantly more at 65 than a dollar invested at 45.
For physicians, the key insight is that your compressed earning timeline means you need to save at a higher rate than most financial advice assumes. A resident who starts investing seriously at 32 instead of 22 loses a full decade of compounding. The calculator helps you quantify what that means, and what aggressive catch-up looks like.
What this doesn't show: taxes, inflation, sequence-of-returns risk, or the impact of your student loan strategy. A 7% nominal return becomes 4-5% after inflation. And tax drag in a non-retirement account can meaningfully reduce real growth. That's where a personalized plan comes in.
