Andrew,
Did you read the piece on investing the Trust Fund in higher yielding assets :
"At the 50th percentile of outcomes, equity investing has the potential to maintain a healthy Trust Fund ratio through the 75-year period"
That seems a little implausible.
I read the piece though I don't remember that exact line (not questioning it). But yes, that's more than the SSA actuaries project from investing 40% of the TF in stocks.
