How Investment Fees Can Harm Your Retirement | Live Q&A

[@maymey]

Regarding whether to use "less" or "fewer", the general rule is to use "less" for things that you cannot count, and "fewer" for things that you can. So less time, but fewer minutes. Less money, but fewer dollars. Less water, but fewer galllons. Less scoring, but fewer points. The weird thing is there's really no similar rule for the opposite of less, "more". English IS a crazy language.

Your video on FDIC insurance was very informative. In fact, I was much more informed than the bank VP when we were re investing his CD's. I was able to protect his portfolio. The bank officer did not.

Your SS earnings from years prior to your first collection year are adjusted for the effects of inflation to determine your first SS benefit amount.

Thanks Rob. Would be great to meet up with you at a conference or subscriber meetup.

The way I look at advisor fees is that it is simply my money going to someone else for a service I can not justify. If I may recommend a book I believe everyone should read that is entitled, "The Simple Path to Wealth" by JR Collins.

I liked that book also. I do need to read it again, thanks for the reminder.

[@ivangr3470]

Crazy to think about a 6k flat fee yearly when im struggling to contribute max out my roth IRA at 7k

Financial advisors can’t do any better for the average wo(man). My experience is that they just take your money. Better to learn and manage your own stuff. It’s not rocket science.
