I don't have the data on this computer but I seem to remember that in the last 50 years the TSE has never done worst than about 7% over a 5 year period ... NEVER DONE WORSE. Pretty much anyone with a pulse can earn 6 or 7 percent ... but again remember it's not 6, it's more like 4.

Just checked, every mutual fund I am in has done better than 6% in the last 5 years. Each and every one.
