1.25% every year on your Roth asset balance?
If so that’s high. It seems like you’d be better off doing it yourself, as you seem to have pretty good understanding what you are doing?
Why not fire the advisor and move to a robo advisor or just manage it yourself?
Yes, he charges 1.25% for the whole portfolio that he manages for me.
The reason I have an advisor is because he also takes care of my compliance with the firm I work for. I have to clear every security through our independence and compliance.
I don't think 1.25% fee for financial advisor worths. You can find some fixed rate CFP instead.
Why do you HAVE to pay a financial advisor to manage it?
I have my Roth IRA invested in a mix of four index funds. The money is direct deposited into the account every payday, I invest in the funds based on my allocations and I rebalance it every 3 months or so.
It’s not that hard to do and it saves a LOT of money on financial advisor and mutual fund manager fees.
