What is a good rule of thumb as to how much a portfolio can return above inflation ? For example , if I compute a portfolio assuming getting an average return of 2% or 2 1/2% above inflation then ER looks good, otherwise it is shaky.

What conservative options would produce the 2%.or more ?
(Too much in stocks seems a little risky. )
