Like a true financial advisor, HoneyBadger did not answer my question, and at the same time over complicated his answer in a way that suggested I chose a product that has high fees.
We'll get it right. Lol

Hey now, I answered 80% of your question! And all mutual funds have fees: either they are loaded, or "no-load" but you want ones with proven track records of out-performing the market and a low expense ratio.Like a true financial advisor, HoneyBadger did not answer my question, and at the same time over complicated his answer in a way that suggested I chose a product that has high fees.

I'm pretty much settled on Vanguard's VTSAX. Thanks for getting back to me.

True, but by May of this year, I will have crossed the inversion line on this one. I.e.: 529 will have more money in it than the current value of my "arsenal"

No, trying to outperform the market is almost guaranteed to fail.

This documentary is next on my list of research. I think it's something you'd be interested in. I'm going to try and watch it tonight and I'll let you know. See if you can watch it as well. It's called The Retirement Gamble and is about the money we lose to fees.

Why would you think that? Millions of people do it every day. I've done it. You can do it to. It isn't some sort of magic.
