A few comparisons of investment asset classes and returns, including the effects of inflation, from the 1940's, 1960's and 1980's
£100 deposited in 1945, gross interest reinvested, now worth £7,490 but £234 inflation adjusted
£100 in Gilts in 1960, gross income reinvested, now worth £5,565 but £179 inflation adjusted
£100 in equities in 1960, gross dividend reinvested, now worth £136,107 but £4,370 inflation adjusted

I wonder what results the next fifty years or so will bring?
