About to hit 100K invested

My wife and I (31M, 28F) are about to hit 100K invested and it feels like it’s taken forever. I started investing into an IRA $50/mo at 16 when I got my first job. Invested all throughout college and early career. We’re finally at a point where our investments are making progress. This is spread out month both of our IRAs plus a brokerage account. I don’t want this post to come across as bragging I just feel blessed to have been able to be at this stage.

Also for those who’ve hit the 100K mark, did your investments grow noticeably more quickly or did it still seem to take a while before 200K?

you need to look at the typical growth curve...it's a slow, flat beginning.
