After 30 years of growth, your company is the size of several countries, GDP-wise.

Assuming zero inflation in our monetary supply and thus zero price inflation, this is undoubtedly an unrealistic assumption.

Sure growth has to slow eventually, but it isn't unrealistic for a successful company to grow 100 percent per year for five years.
