We've profiled groups of people, some of whom retired with as much as $5 million and some of whom retired on Social Security.

If I'm your advisor and I'm charging you 1% of your portfolio, I get paid more when your portfolio does well and goes up.

With the commissions, the incentive is to sell you products, whether you actually need them, whether they're actually in your best interest or not.

It's become increasingly popular for advisors to charge fees rather than commissions.
