The math looks alarming... and that's exactly the point. But as with most things in finance (and life!), the truth is more nuanced than a headline or social media post makes it seem. In this episode, I break down research from Derek Tharp, Ph.D., CFP®, that puts this widely shared math to the test and reveals where it falls apart. Here's what you'll learn: → The misleading assumptions behind the popular \"1% fee\" calculation → How alternative fee models can be 3x more expensive using the same math → What academic research says about quantifying the value of a good advisor → A smarter way to evaluate whether hiring an advisor makes sense for your specific situation This episode isn't about defending any particular fee model. It's about making sure you have the right information to evaluate the cost, the value, and the role financial advice may play in your retirement planning. *** 📆 BOOK A CALL WITH OUR TEAM: Your retirement involves complex, interconnected decisions—taxes, income, healthcare, estate planning, investments.
