Buffett:
The economy, as measured by gross domestic product, can be expected to grow at an annual rate of about 3 percent over the long term, and inflation of 2 percent would push nominal GDP growth to 5 percent. Stocks will probably rise at about that rate and dividend payments will boost total returns to 6 percent to 7 percent.
Why such a different picture than the 10% or 15% suggestions that investment managers often give? Those managers are using overoptimistic approaches.
Retirement advice that indicates that you’ll be fine by just saving 10% of your income starting at age 40 is using unrealistic assumptions, at least from Buffett’s perspective. Save plenty for retirement, and start saving now.IQPF:
Quand on fait une planification financière, on devrait utiliser une hypothèse de rendement de 3,75 % pour un portefeuille équilibré, selon l’Institut québécois de la planification financière (IQPF). Tant mieux si votre courtier fait mieux. Mais il ne faut pas se fier là-dessus.
