Understand these numbers

Contributions arrive at month-end. Effective monthly growth and monthly fees follow the annual assumptions entered. Returns stay constant in this illustration; actual markets fluctuate and can lose value. Taxes and transaction costs are excluded. A delayed start holds the initial cash unchanged until that start, with no contributions or growth.
