I have $42,180.53 in a brokerage account, and I plan to contribute an additional $5000 to the account at the end of every year. The brokerage account has an expected annual return of 12%. If my goal is to accumulate $250,000 in the account, how many years will it take me to reach my goal.

I will be waiting for the real answer, I made 250,000 in Japan working two jobs for 10 years, no investments, I also blew 3,000 a month drinking for awhile too. That is why I still live here.
