I'd rather them take an ultra conservative return vs the 18+% the companies used in our old DB plans. If the returns are better than 5%, it's just gravy.

IMO, a 5% return over a long career is a very poor return that yields essentially 0% after inflation. A conservative 60/40 portfolio has averages 9% since 1928 and 6% after inflation. Wanted to see what others thought about the latest update.
