This article is assuming a certain percentage of compounded return. Seeing as how the market keeps going up and then crashing big time, that doesn't seem like a valid assumption for the next few years anyway.

Some time periods are still scary. Because of the dot-com crash your typical index funds are either flat or still feeling a loss after ten years! I used to think 3-5 years was short term. Now I have to consider a decade as the possible length of a market recovery. Ouch.
