Most of my friends think that it's nearly impossible to make that much return each year by investing (buying and selling regularly) in stocks. I thought it doesn't sound that high? Am I wrong? Anyone has experience with this?
Can you consistently make 20% return in the stock market per year?

During the first twelve or so years of this century it was possible to get 18% growth every year in silver, and in fact I doubled my investment several times by swapping between gold and silver. Stocks went nowhere in that period, and S&P500 did a double top in 2007, which means we are in a slow, noisy crash since then. It's not obvious because the Fed is stamping out money like a madwoman with a cookie cutter. Prices of many foods are about three times what they were, in spite of the federal claims of near zero inflation.
The bottom line is the nation is collapsing and you need your head examined if you get into anything other than commodities. It is not an accident that the internet is flooded with forums discussing how to prepare for disaster. I suggest you take ECON 101 at the local college, ask the professor what other classes to take, and keep studying until you don't need any advice from anybody.
