How Hard Would It Be to Become a Billionaire?

Beau: What if your goal was to become a billionaire? How hard would that have to be? We said, all right, investing $943.81 cents per month and you started that in 1941 over that 40 year period,. A normal working life cycle from 1941 all the way until 1981, you would end up with $10 million. That's an extreme amount of wealth to have accumulated, but that's only part of the story. It is amazing to see $10 million in another 40 plus years of growth turned into $1 billion.
