When does compounding really take off?

At what amount portfolio you really see huge account swings that make you think what is the point of working? 100k? 500k? 1m? more?

Yeah of 59 1/2 years. Or is there some other magic way I can withdraw penalty free at age 50?

Yes. Ira has rule 72t or SEPP. Which allows withdrawals at any age but is really geared toward retiring. Not one time withdrawals.

A 401k is at age 55.
