I would never go to Edward jones and pay their one plus percent managing fee and other fees and commissions they may have when all I’m doing is investing in a few funds that don’t require people do much besides rebalance once in an while and that takes twenty minutes or so.

And in a down market I’m definitely not rebalancing anything and selling for a loss unless I’m talking selling single stocks and that is going to be a small portion of my portfolio

I have tried to get my girlfriend to do a little research and manage her own stuff but she likes paying a lot of money to Edward jones
