About this investment calculator
The goal of any investment is to get more cash out than you put in. The profit (or loss) you incur is your “return on investment.” And thanks to compounding returns, the longer you leave your money invested, the higher your potential returns could be.
Use this investment calculator to estimate how much your investment could grow over time.
How to use GTCO’s investment calculator
- Enter an initial investment. If you have, say, $1,000 to invest right now, include that amount here. If you don’t have an initial amount to invest now, you can enter $0.
- Enter your regular contributions. If you plan to invest a certain amount every month into your investment account (a strategy known as dollar-cost averaging), include this amount after selecting the “monthly” option. Or, if you’d rather invest one lump sum once per year, choose “annually” and include your planned annual contribution. If you do not plan to make regular contributions, select either option and enter $0.
- Choose how long your investment will grow. How long do you plan to keep your money invested? If you’re investing in stocks, it’s generally a good idea to stay invested for at least five years to weather any volatility post-purchase.
