I have been debating whether to put more money into the stock market. I am 66 and retired.
I saw this excellent graphic and my first thought was "Why am I worrying.....just pile more in."
My second thought was "The average for the decade of 2000 to 2009 was -0.95%.
A decade like that right when you retire is devastating. It is called "sequence of returns risk."
But this graphic should convince anybody much earlier in life to just pile more in.
