Not sure why while loop won't run.

%trying to run a while loop, (then a for and a forever) but to me the code seems logical but it has a bug that is stopping it.
%The idea is it loops until the balance hits $500000 then plots a graph. kinda out of ideas...
clear; close all; clc
balance(1) = 1000;
contribution = 1200;
M(1) = 1; % month ticker
interest = 0.0025;
while balance < 500000
balance(M) = balance(M-1) + interest*balance(M-1) + contribution;
M(M) = M + 1; % you need to increment months + 1 every cycle
end
%M(M) = M + 1;
plot(balance,M);
