Pointing out my particular scenario.Ok, just be aware that your lack of returns is not due to the market, it's due to your lack of investing in that market.Coincidentally, I started investing right near when you did, 15 years ago, July 2nd 1998. Unlike you, I added to my stash on a monthly basis over that entire time, and never spent any time "heavy in cash". On top of that, I technically hit FI a year or so ago, so I'd say the "shockingly simple math" is about the exact opposite of a gimmick.

If we can still swing the extra money I've been putting aside, that will go up to 64%. It is a tiny bit tight when I add in the extra 3%, but I am going to see if we can do it.I am VERY happy.Dynamite! Well done.
