Hey Bonnie,

The original numbers I quoted were from one of Peter Lynch's books.
The Motley fool usually uses 10.5% as it's number. I couldn't find
the data easily on a quick pass through the Fool website, the
numbers I'm looking for are on the very page of the "Motley Fool
Guide To Investing" I was reading this morning, but unfortunately
I left it at home.

A quick web search did turn up these numbers: Stock Market 1926-
1999 average 11.3% annually from:
