I don't know why everyone assumes such a low return. I think the term Invest has got everyone confused. Investing $100k doesn't have to be a long term investment like an IRA. You could invest in a startup, invest in the stock market, etc. Give me $100k and I'll retire within the year. A few smart quick investments can really pan out. It can also fail, as we all should know.
