Over the 16 years between 1982 and 1999, the compounded average return of the S&P 500 index was 22.4%. Even after the 30% drop from its all-time high, the S&P 500 could gain nothing over the next seven years and still be above that magical 11% compounded growth rate since 1982. So what if it does? Are you going to have the patience to wait it out?

Interestingly, both GZ and I and I am sure many on this thread are participating in that INTERNET II theme - we have cable access - mine speed checks at between 1.5 and 2.2 meg (I think it is the direction of the wind). It once took from 2-3 hours nightly to do what I wanted... the delays were from access limits. Now it only takes me 1/2 hour or so...

I think there are many businesses which have not even opened their doors to the possibilities...
