Access is a problem, but people can always get a free trial membership to read links if we provided them. No one in this community should ever feel that he or she cannot read a Motley Fool REHP board post because of the $30 fee charged for admission to those boards. I have a long-term goal of re-bu...

If people accept comparisons of hocus to Paul McCartney and Bogle... I don't think these comparisons are so shocking. I sing like Bogle and I work numbers like McCartney. Why don't we do it in an index fund? Why don't we do it in an index fund? No one will be watching us. Why don't we do it in an i...

Peter Bernstein : Although these comparisons are interesting, the objective of portfolio management is to fund liabilities, either current or future, either known with precision or estimated, either actual or expected.

as has been pointed out to hocus repeatedly, we are unsure of the future You have fallen victim to one of the tricks of the Disruptors, Wanderer. Dating back to the May 13, 2002, post, my position has been that aspiring early retirees need to know the true SWR, the one revealed by looking at the hi...

JWR1945 [from the FIRE board thread cited above]: The main observation for our purposes is that the earnings and dividends were lumped together. A correlation was noted and a speculative guess as to its cause was suggested but not proved. When we see real E10 jump during the 1990s (as shown in the ...

Mike : As of the second quarter of 2000, there was 2.2 trillion in defined benefit plans, as compared to only 800 billion in 1985. 2.5 trillion is in 401k plans.

My Days at Pizza Hut University
The August 27 issue of the Wall Street Journal has an article about reaction to the Peter Bernstein speech from early this year in which he voiced support for the much-criticized strategy of "market timing." Here's a link to the article. You need to subscribe to view the link. http://onlin...
