Are you paying the IRS’s investment fees? 💸
Most retirees look at their 401(k) or IRA balance and see one number. But there’s a hidden "Ghost Fee" lurking in the math.
If you have a traditional IRA, a portion of that account actually belongs to the government for future taxes. The problem? Most people are paying 100% of the management fees on money they only own 70% of.
The "Tom" Case Study: Tom has a $1M IRA. Because he’s paying fees on the government's share of that money, he loses roughly $2,500 every year to the "wrong side of the ledger." Over 20 years, that’s $50,000 that could have stayed in his pocket.
Don't let your retirement savings leak away. It’s time to look at the "wrong side of the ledger" and keep more of what you’ve earned.
