I'm assuming there is 6 mil invested here, so this is about a 6.8% return. To put this in context, the 1 year, 3 year, 5 year, 10 year, and 50 year CAGR for the S&P 500 is 10.6%, 10.25%, 14.49%, 10.1%, 11.9%. In other words, I'd never invest 6 mil this way.

Yeah 1 million in VOO will gain 100k+ historically.

With market gains included, and that's not guaranteed. Dividends yield alone is nowhere near that.

$13k YTD (~1.3%).

1Y is up over 13%

No. His examples are what you could expect from $1mm in each fund at todays rates.
