In Justin's dreams......

Scroll down and take a look at the income growth (oxymoron when used here) for Dodbx.

Does anyone (really) think the next 20 years will be like the last 20, two decades where minimal income growth could be subsidized by oodles and oodles and oodles and oodles of easily found capital gains, and mainly from US Equities and US bonds......?

Both the 'Timing' and the 'Portfolios' of Standard US Balanced funds are wrong for today  in comparison to products specifically designed to grow an income stream

Justin, I know this simple truth does not win popularity contests with those who own these types of funds, but 'creative disinformation' used as some sort of predictor regarding the future income growth potentials of funds like Dodbx or Vwelx compared to a Caibx where insignificant facts are over emphasized, and significant one's avoided, only hurt the people who will believe it..

A lot of people 'can' be fooled a lot of the time, especially when Robin Hood appears to give those oppressive loads back to the horrible mean rich.....:-)
