Getsmarteraboutmoney.ca - go to their compound interest calculator. If you have 210k and put it into VEQT on questrade and set up a DRIP, in 35 years you'll have something like $3 million

Can you link to the actual calculator you're using for that? That page you linked is just their homepage. I've never seen a calculator that accounts for a DRIP.

It's just a compound interest calculator https://www.getsmarteraboutmoney.ca/calculators/compound-interest-calculator/

Use this one to calculate the value with inflation (average historically is 3.25% over the last century) https://www.wealthmeta.com/calculator/compound-interest-calculator
