    After one year, the amount will be (1.065) ($5000) After two years, the amount will be (1.065) (1.065) ($5000) This equals (1.065) ^2 ($5000) After n years, the amount will be (1.065) ^n ($5000) (1.065) ^n ($5000) = $50,000 (1.065) ^n = 10 (n) (ln (1.065)) = ln (10) n = ln (10) / ln (1.065) n = 37 You can begin your travels in about 37 years.
