Get back to me in a year. If your portfolio gained 15% over the last year, which would be beating most indices, you didn’t even keep up with inflation. An over valued market is a mirage.

15%? You Bernie Madoff? The average S&P return is around 10%. Some years better. Some years worse.

Eh. That’s a broad brush statement. Inflation is highly localized to an area and really to an individual. An example, if you don’t purchase a car, but car prices have increased 15%, that increase has affected you - not at all.
