The reason we offer this service is because we received requests from our tax and investment clients to help them with their 401(k)/403(b)/457(b) plans. The need for this service was reinforced by a Schwab 2017 401(k) Participation Study:


  • 70% said, “I would like personalized Investment advice for my 401(K).”
  • 66% said, “I wish I had an easier way to know how to choose the investments for my 401(k).”
  • 45% said, “I don’t feel I know what my best 401(k) investment options are.”
  • 44% said, “I feel a lot of stress about choosing the right investment for my 401(k).”

 

Our services are designed for you, “The Plan Participant,” not your employer.

Is the potential of having $284,920 to $878,504 more in your 401(k) plan worth the time to read the short report below? 

It’s important to note that studies¹⁻² have shown those who seek help with their plan can earn 3% more on their investments (net of advisors' fee). That difference can make a big impact on your bottom line in retirement.


For example, by investing $500 per month for 30 years, the difference between earning an average of 7% versus 4% is $284,920 more (net of advisors’ fee). If you were investing $1,500 per month it would be $854,760 more.

Actual outcomes may differ materially from the expressed projections.

Why do I use 4% instead of 7%?

New ParagraphAccording to Dalbar’s “2015 Quantitative Analysis of Investor Behavior,” the average mutual fund investor has underperformed the market in all the time intervals that were examined, which ranged from one year to three decades. And the underperformance is astonishing. The study also found that in the 20-year period ending December 31, 2013, the average investor (in all varieties of mutual funds) only managed an average total return of about 2.5%. However, for illustrative purposes we are assuming that you are doing 58% better than the average investor.


According to DALBAR’s “20th Annual Quantitative Analysis of Investor Behavior 2014,”
Avera
ge return from 1994-2013 (20 years):

Average Equity

Fund Investor:

5.02%

Average Fixed

Income Investor:

0.71%

Average Asset

Allocation Investor:

2.53%

The average investor refers to the universe of all mutual fund investors whose actions and financial results are restated to represent a single investor. This approach allows the entire universe of mutual fund investors to be used as the statistical sample, ensuring ultimate reliability. The various interest rates are for illustrative purposes only. This is not a guarantee of future interest rates or financial return. This illustration assumes deposits are made at the beginning of each year. This illustration does not account for reduction for inflation and taxes. Taxes are due upon withdrawal from qualified retirement plans and IRA and there may be a 10% penalty for withdrawals prior to age 59 1/2.
