"I have often fantasized about Tyhee being, let's say, $5.00 in 2016; that would mean my 2006 shares at around .50 cents would have fructified tenfold. From the perspective I would have in 2016, I would say "Not bad, 100% per year for ten years!" The hard part is being patient enough to get there!!!"

Actually, a tenfold increase in 10 years equates to a roughly 25% yearly gain.

A double (100% gain) per year for 10 years would make the shares increase by a factor of 1024 (2^10), so your 50 cent shares would be worth $512! (maybe not impossible with Bernanke at the helm of the Fed)
