After playing with the numbers, it seems I need to average at least a 20% YoY return. Are you all implementing anything that has allowed you to achieve this?

Should I used one of the financial services i.e. Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, etc?

[Bennett]

I’ve achieved that and then some by investing in real estate. Not tooting my own horn but it’s very possible but it is definitely more hands on them stocks.

Also, very rewarding

Not going to happen over any length of time for most investments

Why do u “need’ 20% apy? Likely not going to happen unless u just go head deep in some single stocks and be suoer high risk.

Going w a financial firm like jp morgan, goldman sachs is no guarantee of better returns.

It’s likely a guarantee of paying them higher fees for them to never beat the market and not likely they’re going to beat u self directing in a couple of low cost, broad based index funds / etfs

Vegas likely gets that annual return, but then again they own the casinos.

Please recalibrate your ROI expectations or you’ll take risks that will bite you.

The SP 500 returned 23 percent last year and 25 percent the year before

Lol with covered call etfs and closed end funds, I generate 5k to 8-9k/month with 243k to 266-267k plus 45k of margin.

The monthly etf and cef distributions deleverage the portfolio.

Even without margin, I could even generate 20k to 50k/month if I wanted to increase my risk

Warren buffet probably got job for someone who can do that over the extended period of time.

It is certainly possible, but you need to do more than just invest in ETFs or index funds. My average over the last 12 years is about 35% annual gain and probably higher now after the recent market highs.

Don’t let people tell you it’s not possible, but you have to do your homework and treat your investing seriously and not like gambling.

I’m always trying to learn more all the time because you have to adapt your strategy as the situation changes.

20% return? Easy peasy. What likelihood of that do you need? 50% probability?

90% probability?

[Mani]

To FI or to get to your FI#? I think it’s possible for most years but you definitely need to go risky and really search for opportunities.

You don’t get that by just letting money sit in the market.

[Mario]

Why do you “need” to average 20%
Over how long?

That’s pretty much impossible over a longer time horizon…

[Ian]

This is possible, but you will have to have to be a qualified investor and have access to good private placements.
