Success in the New Retirement

This week, Damon Roberts & Matt Deaton discuss fees in retirement plans. Fees are a silent killer of retirement plans, but they are often not readily available or disclosed. Mutual funds have three major fees: expense ratio, 12B1 fee, and transaction cost. Controlling fees is a predictor of success in your retirement account. Morningstar reports can reveal the fees you're actually paying. Lowering fees can significantly improve your portfolio's performance. Index funds are a cheap alternative with low management fees. It's important to understand and reduce fees in investments like mutual funds and variable annuities. Customizing a financial plan in the 50-60 age range is crucial for retirement preparation. Taking the time to meet with retirement experts, such as Damon Roberts & Matt Deaton, can save you more than 15% and give you peace of mind. A good retirement plan allows you to retire on your terms, regardless of market fluctuations.
