In the book it says how to calculate your financial freedom number and it uses the tax rate of 40% (.6) for your investments earning you money. I thought capital gains tax was 15%?

Also is 5% a realistic rate of return? Is this before or after inflation? I thought inflation was 3% on average so 5% would really be only 2%?

Thanks if anyone can give any info on this topic.
