I've been trying to decide how much money I'd need to retire. Sadly I don;t think a million does it until you're quite old. And a million pounds is quite a while off...

I'm basically going to be a worker bee until I'm 50.

ok, a bit optimistic. Even a 25-30% return over 20 years would return a high yield. </BLOCKQUOTE>

even a 25-30% ROI is surely unattainable.

Most people realistically aim for 10 and hope for 15. And that doesn't even take into account inflation, nor the fact that, presumably, our hero in this instance is hoping to live off the returns, which would lower his return considerably.

Sell smack, that usually works.

Become a FIFA player agent and get some contacts in Brazil. I know some board members of a club if you want to start

I do wonder how a 16 year old who sounds like he's never done an honest day;s work in his life has saved up two grand...

Probably down to grandma's christmas pressie or whatnot.

Good investors can acheive that. The rest of us muggins will settle for a 10% return.
