Call it a 7% solution. Assume a 7% inflation-adjusted return from a portfolio of U.S. and international stocks, bonds and cash -- not overly aggressive, but an expected return that requires taking some risk -- and living well within your means.

 

Yeah...   why didn't I think of that.  I'll tell the bank I want that 7% solution program.

I'd be happy with those numbers, less thirsty even, but I figure I'd even be out the 10,000 shortly.  But great suggestions darkdreamer4u

51hh, agreed, on this article.  But the Bloomberg article on Nixon/Gold standard was worth the time, I thought.

Seems to be a dud around here, though.  The article kind of explains how all the fuzzy math and gaming of US currency really took off.  I expected some good feedback and discussion on that one. Even if someone thought the facts were off, I was looking forward to the insight of others on the subject.

The article is 5 pages long.  What I posted was very little of what is actually in the article.

So that's why the eye catching stuff is written.  It's what we will read.  It must be what we want.

The other stuff is just too heady for us, I guess.

Maybe that's why the politicians can pretend they know math, and talk circles around themselves and voters.
