You are mixing up discount rate with expected returns

no, i am not. i am doing it exactly the way Buffet does it. i provided a quote from Buffett here a few weeks ago that says exactly the same thing.

as i said before, in case you forgot,

here's what BUFFETT had to say at the most recent Berkshire Hathaway shareholders meeting:
"If you've got a business that's delivering you no cash today and it's selling for $500 billion, in order to give you 15% on your money, it'd have to be giving you $75 billion this year. But if it doesn't give you $75 billion this year, it has to give you $86.25 billion next year. And if it doesn't do it next year, it'd have to give you almost $100 billion in the third year. Those numbers are staggering.
The implications involved in certain market valuations really belong in Gullivers Travels or something."
