My simple average for the past 10 years is 20.8% vs the NYSE 8.1%. I am sorry, but simple average does not make much sense. You have to calculate IRR. :) Edit: I did that for you based on yearly results, which is inexact, but much better than simple average. Your annualized return rate is 15% and NYSE's is 6%. :) Better than mine. :) OT: why do people compare against NYSE? S&P is a standard IMHO, even if you dislike it (as I do).
