Has Anybody on This Forum Achieved 8-12% Consistently over a 10+ Year Period?
Basically I want to read some success stories. In a few months I'm selling my condo and investing the proceeds. However, before I concede to either a couch potato strategy or a cheap balanced fund (for example MAW104), I want to see if it's possible to have a higher growth rate CONSISTENTLY. My problem isn't taking risks. I'm 29 and I've got a long time to go. The problem is no matter what fund I look at, the 10 year average is not much different than a balanced fund. So what's the point of all the up and down with a risky fund!? None that I can see so far.
I'm sure a lot of people are buying and selling individual stocks and achieving success, but long-term success? That's what I'm trying to figure out.
