Investing $1,000: The commercial from Apple aired during the third quarter of the Super Bowl. The ad highlighted an upcoming product, which proved to be a major catalyst for Apple. Anyone watching the commercial who felt like it was well done, might have been convinced that Apple could compete in the computer space, and may have chosen to invest in shares of the company.
Apple traded at a split-adjusted price of $0.13 on the Monday after Super Bowl XVII (Jan. 23, 1984). A $1,000 investment could have purchased 7,692.31 shares of AAPL. The $1,000 investment in AAPL shares would be wroth $1,331,385 today, based on a price of $173.08 for AAPL shares at the time of writing.

Yeah, not bad.
Of course you could also have just bought a house in Cupertino at the time for about $120K and it would be worth north of $2.5M now.
And you would have gotten to live in it all this time.

You could have also bought MNST or Tractor Supply.

How Much You’d Have Now
Or:
Your ex would have now
Your heirs might have now
You’d have now if you don’t get hit by a bus
You’d have now if you don’t invest in something stupid
You don’t spend it on women and booze (and waste the rest)

Plus Apple has split 5 times! I have to believe Trumps DWAC will be splitting this year yet.

This is not that impressive.
There was a guy trying to auction off 10,000 Bitcoin for $50 sometime in 2010. $50 is throwaway money, risk-wise.
That would be worth over $380,000,000 as of this writing. (That’s with the recent cratering of crypto.)
Not bad for the price of a couple of mediocre steak dinners.
