    Depends on the investment. Is 10% the average? No. But a good investment adviser should be able to find you growth funds with a long (5+ year) track record of at least 10%. T. Rowe Price, as just one example, has since 1969 or so averaged 17% growth.

    If there's one area not to go cheap when you spend money, its on getting financial guidance for investing!
    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"
