Hi All,
Back from Netherlands and France ...way good experience!
So, the experience makes my leave megacorp finger very twitchy ...
Was looking at the Fidelity retirement planning tool ... and have previously used FIRECalc. Both left me wanting more and different for separate reasons. Always had the sense that Fidelity was maneuvering me back to them for advice ... and, when I asked it for their version of better allocation, the funds all came back 1%+ in fees ... exasperated me.
Vanguard didn't really seem to have anything like this. I heard TR Price does, but I don't have funds there.
Are there other tools that are "independent" and offer suitable touch and feel characteristics with greater flexibility to load everything in and play "what if"? (PS ...I don't necessarily need the tool to pull data from accounts in real time)
