Borrow half of it for other investments, at 7%−3.5% / yr

You still compound+10.5% / yr

QQQ tracks the Nasdaq-100: Apple, Nvidia, Microsoft, and the rest of the 100 largest US tech companies.

QQQ is used as an example. QQQ total return 2023–2025: +56.4%, +25.7%, +19.5% (dividends reinvested), turning $10,000 into ~$23,500. Ledger math assumes ~14% long-run QQQ growth and a 7% borrow rate on half the portfolio. Past performance doesn’t guarantee future returns.
