I agree, KTP. The 2 funds I mentioned aren't my only holdings. I also own:

VFINX 10-year -0.23%
VWIGX 10 year 4.09%
and a few others with similar numbers.

10% isn't reasonable to assume in the best of markets. I'm guessing the author used 10% just because it is a nice round number though not a realistic one.
