I'll see your Google, Forrest, and raise you an Apple.

It launched at $26 per share, is worth about $190 now, and has been split 2:1 three times. In other words, its worth is 58.5 times greater now: (26/190) x (2x2x2) = 58.5.

A similar investment of $42,500 (500 shares x $85) in 1984 would yield $2,498,250 today.
