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.

The Vanguard 500 Index Fund (VFINX) has existed since 1976.

Kenneth French (the "French" in the Fama-French asset pricing model) provides market data going back to 1972 [1] and can be used to reconstruct index fund performance.

Citadel doesn't have individual clients, and if you're not a billionaire I don't see how you'd gain access to their hedge fund.

Huh? The first index fund was started 45 years ago, and indexes existed and are tracked far longer than that. Tell me what percentage of hedge funds beat the S&P over the last 50 years?
