If you cherry pick the US S&P (over international, and over small cap), I’m allowed to cherry pick hedge funds.

Many funds consistently outperform the S&P by 2-3X over 30-40 years. Minimum investment, $5-10M, of course.

Buy and hold is the best option for those under USD $10 million net worth, but you must acknowledge there are semi-closed funds/prop trading firms that consistently beat the market.

Citadel hedge fund. 19% annual return. After fees. For 30 years [1].

The most popular index funds (VTI, VGT) only have a 20-year track record, with a paltry 9% and 13% annual return, respectively.
