I disagree with the article under the link you posted. I believe in Buffett when he says that he could do 50% annual with small amounts. I am sure that a good investor can do 20%+ annual with small amounts (up to 100M or so). Ignoring benchmarks is stupid when you can put money into index fund and get that return instead of underperforming for years. It is even more stupid if you could put 80% of money into index fund, 20% into cash for a crash and still outperform your "active" strategy. "I don't need to outperform benchmark" is just a rationalization of poor returns most of the time. (This is not aimed at you personally, I have no clue what your returns are).
