When was the last time you looked at the costs your financial advisor or mutual funds are charging you?

Many times as Jack Bogle says “Investors are taking 100% of the risk for 33% of the return.” Don’t let your retirement suffer because you’re not getting the best rates at the lowest cost for your investments.
