Most ETFs have returned about 7-8 % average long term (before allowing for inflation). Not a bad return, but very different over 20 years from 10-15%

- robohoe 7y ago7-8% is still nothing to scoff at. Better than a measly 1% in a savings account :D
- Ididntdothis 7y agoThere is a slight difference in outcome between 7 and 15 percent return though :).

- Solvitieg 7y agoIt has to be said that this 7-8% average is inflated due to being at the end (?) of a ten year bull market. Vangaurd is predicting low growth of 3-4% over the next decade.
- Kirby64 7y agoAverage rate of return is 7% accounting for inflation, actually. That assumes you're doing dividend reinvestment and such. Vanguard's predictions of 3-4% over the next decade mean that if you do a straight dollar calculation you'd be closer to ~7%, because that 3-4% number includes inflation, once again.
