Advisor’s Alpha is Wrong!


Vanguard, the King of NO fees, puts out an annual study where they attempt to quantify the value of a comprehensive financial advisor. I can attest to many of the services mentioned, but it is very difficult, if not impossible, to determine the exact % of additional value added those services can provide. In any event, I think Vanguard actually misses the mark on a few of these, particularly because of WHO you are (PFR Nation).

I also believe Vanguard fails to include one of the MOST important factors when considering the value of a financial advisor. And yes, I acknowledge that I am a VERY biased source on this topic. However, you might find it surprising where I land on some of the points Vanguard makes.


I hope you find it useful!
