If you average 10% gains every month with a starting stack of $1000, you'll have $3100 at the end of the year.

$30000 the third.
$100.000 the fourth.

Do the math yourself
1000 x (1.1) ^ 12 = 3138
3138 x (1.1) ^ 12 = 9848
9848 x (1.1) ^ 12 = 30907
30907 x (1.1) ^ 12 = 97000
Or simply, 1000x (1.1) ^ 48
10% per month is REALLY not that difficult.
