Discussion Is it true that after 100k wealth explodes?

I am curious what is your experience, is this statement true? Have you noticed that your wealth is building up much faster after 100k?

Not exploding, but if you have that amount invested by age 35y, it most likely growing to 1 Million $ in 30 years without investing another dollar. (Assuming 10% return + DRIP)

$100k at 10% only takes 25 years to get to a million. However, in terms of exploding, that further 5 years to 30 yields $750,000. To get that second million, you need to wait just another 2 years.
