>The US market from 1966-1992 total inflation adjusted return (26 years) was zero. This was during a period when high dividend stocks were in fashion. I'm willing to bet that during that period stocks probably beat almost every other form of investment with regards to profits. |

This illustrate why makes me uneasy of current times, that blind faith in the stock market as the ultimate investment. From FIRE communities to r/wallstreetbets to regular retirement to professional fund manager, don't ask question and join the dance, it always was and always will be 6-8% per year, it's a law of nature.
