Of course you can. If you have $17M invested in $VOO you'll make about 200k every year in dividends.

What's difficult is getting a higher rate of return.

$200k is totally doable with $2M investment capital and a bit of disciplined options trading.

10% probably. Though with the higher-than-market rate, there would also be dispersion in the consistency of the return. I could see some lean years where no money is made. I could also see a decade where you are buying at ever-higher valuations rather than dollar-cost averaging -- thus you could see a lean decade following.

It all depends on how much consistency you want.

Finally some advice for the common man.

Obviously we're talking about returns above the market. You don't need an algorithmic trading platform to invest in index funds.
