Earn 11% not 3.79% "The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient." Warren Buffett Mr Buffett's strategy of patience has proven to be the most astounding in history. He has earned 20.8% a year compounded over 50 years for his shareholders. His firm had 2 bad years. He does NOT trade or speculate. He holds companies for a long time. The average brokerage investor earned just 3.79% while the stock market earned 11.06% over the last 30 years. DALBAR Most investors jump from one "popular" security to another just in time for them to go down. So they earn just 3.79%; paying more ... for less. Buffett has been patient for over 60 years: his $6,000 from paper routes has grown to $72 billions. http: //www.fool.com/investing/general/2014/02/07/beat-the-market-with-1-stock.aspx You can become wealthy by choosing the best investment strategy in the 21st century.
