It’s unthinkable to them that it could just go flat like Japan, China, Europe, Middle East, South America stonks. It provides a guaranteed return except in the event of a collapse in which case, “you’ll have bigger problems than your stock portfolio.”
They aren’t “pretty sure” or “mostly sure.” It’s a bona fide Certainty.

No, they're expecting an 8% average. That you don't understand the difference between expected and guaranteed value explains a lot about your life.

lol nice word salad disco.
"eat up that dividend return" - the word "that" in this sentence reference "tax advantages" in the prior. two wholly distinct concepts
and your threatening conclusion is that they do not perform as advertised. to whom is this the relevant question rather than "would that money, tax adjusted, outperform if put in the SPX or the plan"

It is very on brand for you to be in a terrible fee-laden 401k that probably involves kickbacks between employer and advisor. Normal 401k now have Vanguard funds with like 0.1% admin fees on top.

The amount of uncertainty in capital market assumptions is insane. Even over a 30 year time horizon you can get absolutely fucked:

Imagine getting the 5th percentile US equity returns of 3.1% CAGR for 30 years.

First, that’s the expected average over a long period of time (i.e. we could be down 20% in one year and up 30% one year but it evens out over the long term out to 8% gain)
And it’s not just Reddit. The financial planning and wealth management industries take this as an absolute and undeniable truth. Probably because most people realistically can’t retire unless it’s true.

S&P500 had puny and at times negative inflation adjusted returns for decades after the late 1960s.
November 1968 to November 1988: inflation adjusted price return, -1.38%. Inflation adjusted total return (w dividend reinvestment), 2.73%.
November 1968 to September 1985: inflation adjusted price return, -3.27%. Inflation adjusted total return, 0.9%
worst case-November 1968 to July 1982: inflation adjusted price return, -6.89%. Inflation adjusted total return, -2.94%.
all percentage returns annualized

Stocks have had negative returns during periods of yield curve steepening since the 60s.
https://realinvestmentadvice.com/bull-steepening-is-bearish-for-stocks-part-two/
I don't see how price earning multiples can inflate beyond their current levels. Unless there is significant earnings growth, which is unlikely in an economic slowdown, stock prices ought to drop in the medium term. It's reason to keep some powder dry in mmfs that can b deployed when stocks fall from nosebleed levels.

You’re right that redditors are dumb and have no understanding of volatility or the drivers of long-term stock returns. But even the markets you cite as flat are up over the last 5/10 years. Not up as much as the US but far better than negative real rate safe assets. Avoiding stocks in your long-term investments so you can feel superior to people who lost $$$ in various bubbles is even dumber than being a redditor and guarantees that you remain poor.

If there were no money hookers would be even more willing to work for food and drugs. The challenge would be getting enough food and drugs, especially for those of us in the class that would be sacrificed to make a skull pyramid in the post-capitalist world.

I'm of the opinion you should just index the whole planet. The US is about 60% of the global market cap, so 60%ish of your portfolio should be the US, which you can do with a domestic whole market fund. The rest of the world is about 40% which you can mirror pretty closely with VEU or similar. I have no idea if the US will continue to overperform global stocks, but that's why we're indexing it. Keep enough cash on hand to ride out crashes and you're fine.

i disagree with this. if you do that, then for the time being 40% of your money is underperforming. and then if eventually foreign stocks start outperforming, from that point forward 60% of your money will be underperforming.
i have everything in US based equities.
it's risky, but i think a fairly safe bet that the US will continue to outperform. i guess if US stocks start shitting the bed for a few years, you take a hit and maybe reevaluate.

The whole point of indexing is that you know for sure you're doing something suboptimal because you don't know what the optimal thing is-- nobody does until after the fact. I'm okay with my the growth of my stock portfolio mirroring the growth of the whole planet, which is pretty close to what a global index does. US stocks might overperform, international stocks might overperform, either way I should be fine unless it's literal World War 3 in which case no investment will halp.

But that's no different than saying "Apple has done really well for the past 20 years, I'll just invest in apple."
Yeah, the S&P absolutely beat the shit out of international stocks for the past 50 years, but that's already baked into the price of domestic and foreign stocks. I'll just buy everything because I have no idea if that's what it'll do for the next 40 or so years that are of interest to me (after that I'll be DET and stop caring)

While the U.S. has never experienced a 20-year period of negative real returns, it has gotten close a few times. From February 1966 through December 1982, U.S. stocks lost 0.16% on an annualized basis, when including dividends and adjusting for inflation. That’s a 16-year period of negative real returns. Additionally, from September 1929 through December 1944, U.S. stocks experienced a 15-year period of negative real returns. This coincided with the beginning of the Great Depression through WWII.
