This says nothing. How much was put in and how much is the growth? I invested $50k in 2020 and it has grown to $500k in growth stocks. I learned so much doing in on my own. I will not pay much in taxes as I file HH for years to come.
I will be bringing up the cost basis slowly for the next 10+ years. You got to learn to do it on your own and don't let taxes and fees eat into your money.
I also have two Roth accounts, but ca $80k tax free money every year in taxable account is quite awesome. Never had a 401k or any retirement offered at work. I wouldn't even do it for the match as my own returns are so much higher. You don't know what problems you will have with RMD later in life.

TSP fed here retiring this year. When I started I maxed out (what I don't get I don't miss) and put it in the C/stock fund. Finally started paying attention in anticipation of separating and shocked (in a good way) at the balance. Max out, invest in stock and let it ride.

What’s your balance now? And how many years?
