hello all,
my 403b plan is a group annuity thru ING...i've looked thru the archives and see that the reason my fees are higher than the lovely Vanguard 0.18 is the insurance component etc.
aside from being annoyed - i'm reviewing my current investments and considering some moves. i'm going through the giant book of investment prospectus' and finding the fees range from a low of .50 to over 1.0 - exceptions of course are the bonds that are very low fees.
What are people's rules of thumb on the fees?
i have about $44k in the account, i'm almost maxing out my contribution - my goal is to do that in the next year or two, and at this time it is earning 12%, and i'm 30 yrs old.
thoughts!!!
thanks in advance
