Here's how one does it:

1. Start in one's 20s or with one's first job.
2. Contribute $158.15 each month into a Roth Account.
3. Invest the funds in the S&P 500 index fund.    
4. Reinvest the dividends.
5. Wait at least 40 years before making a withdrawal.
6. And that's all it takes to get to a million dollars.
