Investing: Breaking the 1% Fee Habit, Risk, and Staying the Course","description":"On this episode of CFO at Home, Vince speaks with Andy Parrillo of Parrillo Investors about the importance of investors understanding the fees that financial advisors charge to manage their money, and the true all-in cost of investing in mutual funds and ETFs. Andy shares a bit on the history of these fees, and advocates for investors to have their advisors provide performance reports showing their returns after fees, against the performance of the appropriate benchmark. Andy also discusses how investment portfolios can have too little risk as well as too much, investing behavioral pitfalls, market timing, fear-driven decisions, and staying the course through downturns.
