> How do you figure? I've been financing a car at ~3% interest for the past 4 years. My investments have returned triple that over the same period

Would you be willing to disclose in general terms what you have in your portfolio of investments. Keen to learn.

On average, the S&P 500 has historically returned roughly 9.8% annually. In 2017, the S&P 500's total return was over 19.7%. But for 2018, it was minus 6.2%.

You could easily achieve similar returns in an S&P 500 index fund.

Vanguard ETFs are my jam: VOO, VXF, VGT, VTI, etc.
