The Initial Investment and 7% of rent are two separate mechanisms that contribute to the ending investment value at the end of the term. Your initial investment will grow at an annual rate based on the performance of the fund + 7% of your rent will be contributed.

OK, so most of the return is based on the initial investment, not the rent? And it's based on an assumed annual rate that you cannot guarantee and that you don't even disclose in the example? That doesn't inspire confidence.
It depends on the initial investment size, if the initial investment is large enough then it will make up a larger portion. The projected annual returns are listed on the /invest page.

Gotcha, thanks. It would be really good to have a bit of that information next to the calculator on the landing page.
