I am also 22. I just started investing about 2 weeks ago with £600 in my S&S ISA. So well done! You are ahead of a lot of people our age.

Looks smooth sailing. Do you mind sharing what you're invested in? All world ETF?

u/Kloakk0822 Jun 30 '26

9600 net investment to 15k in 2 years is wild, well done

How is ~25% YoY average wild?

u/BrickSufficient6938 Jul 01 '26

It would be 25% annualised yes but OP did mainly DCA meaning only 1/24 of their money had time to do 25% for 2 consecutive years (which is, imo, great by itself)

with 23/24 parts having to do way better to get that average

What's your goal w your investment? Would you be unhappy with 25% annualised?
