It is true the commentary 2 years ago on  http://thevalueswan.com/some-low-risk-mutual-funds-that-deliver-9-10-yearly-backtested-10-to-15-years/ has only returned 3% and 4% yearly which is not the best but it is a secure gain backed by bonds and income producing stocks.

I am deeply sorry for not giving the best commentary.  The moral of the story, even backtesting 10 or 15 years is bullshit.
