99% of investors should stick with a low cost index fund. Put money in every month and let it compound for decades. There are probably less than 10 people who have the ability to outperform the market year after year and I can assure you they are not working for a mutual fund company or working as a financial advisor.

The 85% of funds managers underperforming the index provided is for any single year. More impressively and importantly is to look at that figure over 5, 10, and 20 years, where it increases to 90, 97, and 99%. That makes for a more than compelling case for index investing, and how very rare the likes of Peter Lynch truly are.

@@harleycartley3138 That's because funds have to constantly move with the market. If you are a long term investor that just buys and holds you can easily beat the market. If you just invested in the FAANGM stocks over the past decade you would have killed any index fund.

Great video on index funds. You can't go wrong with picking ETFs or Index Funds, especially for beginners. Investing into and index that tracks the S&P 500 returns about 10.7% year over year on average. Your local bank offers less than 1/2 of 1% to hold onto your money. It's a no-brainer to go with ETFs or Index funds!

For me personally, any investment that’s less than 3 % rate of returns I wouldn’t even bother to waste my time because you have to consider inflation as well which is eroding your purchasing power by 2-3 % a year on average and in 2022, US inflation rate hits 8.3 %
