    I don't know if you remember several months ago I said all I needed was to gain 1% a month for the next 7 years and my retirement goals would be met. You said 1% was very easy and I should be able to do much better. So far I'm 4 1/2 months ahead of schedule , but 1% compounded month after month year after year is still harder to attain than it would appear.

    I'm gonna stand by what I said. Unless you are dealing with very large amounts (over 7 figures) I really don't see a problem with averaging over 20%+ a year. Of course there will be months when you lose...But there should be months where you make a lot more. One thing that can hold you back though is keeping a lot of cash on hand. For eample, you could have $100 grand in your portfolio but average 50% in cash throughout the year...Then you'd have to make about double the % on your investments for your whole portfolio to increase by your target amount.

    Now, if you are good at calling the market direction you could stay in cash when it's going nowhere and then back up the truck long or short(if you have non-tax deferred $$) when the market is really moving.

    Also, if you can...you could day trade...Takes more time but I cannot see making less than 20% a year day trading.

    Of course, you could always buy the new 'Forever" stamps for 41 cents ea...But I wouldn't expect to make more than 3% a year.

      Doug,
      Good point about being in cash when the market stinks. I've got almost nothing in cash and make a killing in months when the market does well and get killed when the market tanks. Please tell me 30 days in advance and I'll know when to go to cash.

      River,
      I think e-trade is also offering 5.04 for idle cash in trading accounts.

              Well Billy...Looks like the experts at Duncan-Hurst can't do it...But you could just trade the IIC 100 Top 5...You'd be up 40% YTD and could take the next 2 years off and still be at your annual target.

                  IRS instructions say filing is due 4/16 except in certain states that recognize Patriot's Day...But since it is also Emancipation Day recognized in Wash DC they updated their site...

                  From irs.gov : My IRS tax instructions say I should file by April 16, 2007. Is this correct? This is not correct. At the time these instructions were approved for printing, IRS believed it was correct. Thus, any IRS form, instruction or publication that currently shows an “April 16, 2007” due date should now be read as “April 17, 2007.”
