My retirement fund that I just started was worth $15k in December of 2021. Then, May of 2022, our area was hit really hard. My retirement plan went down to $7k. Today, it's worth $11k. I lost $4k on my retirement plan. It's invested in total market funds, some tech, some big cap companies, and healthcare. But every sector has been ravaged by the stock market changes.
I'm in a Vanguard target fund and I'm up 7.8% over the same period. There was a lot of red until December 2023, when it broke even. All gains are pretty much from this year looking at my returns chart.
Which funds did you invest into? I've studied like 25 hours of investing. Haven't found a good fund yet except FSKAX and VTI
I let my bank’s financial advisor handle that. They have apps that calculate everything.
That's all fine, but just be sure you know how much you're paying them for that service. Before we switched to self-managed a number of years ago our guys were taking 1.4% off the top of the whole account just to pick a bunch of index ETFs. Market goes up 5% and I only see 3.6% of it. Not good. Plus the ETFs they picked had higher expenses than just going with a whole market choice.
They offered to get us on a plan at 1%. Ha, no thanks.
Yeah that’s bad. We’re with JP Morgan through our local Chase branch and their fee when all is said and done is averaged down to less than 1% of the total account balance.
That's better for sure. Still too much for me. Our all-in investment cost is 0.05% now. That's a lot of free compounded yield compared against guided investments which are themselves no better than the average market (on average).
Who are you with?
We are on Fidelity. But self-directed on all the big ones are no fee and free trades these days - Vanguard, Fidelity, Merrill and probably others. Just need to watch the fund/ETF fees to have a total cost.
