There are many pathways to a million-dollar retirement portfolio. For example, investing $300 per month into an investment earning 10% annually would grow into $1 million in about 34 years. That's a very achievable return. It's slightly less than the average annual return of an S&P 500 index fund over the last 30 years. Meanwhile, you could become a millionaire even faster by increasing your monthly investment or finding higher-return investments.
