not saying some people dont work but the average increase is 5 percent over the market most years. one guy posted he turned 50k into 7.5 million, thats funny. I have many friends that have lost many thousands and never made money in the stock market. Thats common! Im more than happy im actually up! we all have some shockers. For example many people lost more than they will ever make up in, VOG, RMP, RRL, VGM, FOGL,CHAR, plus many of the other crap shares that small pi's buy in, now a balanced port folio should mean your wins will out run your losses but many over load one or two shares. IMO
