I’ve been investing for 5 years in my district’s 403b plan. Charged both a load and a fee for funds in which I earned around 3% while paying more than that in loads and fees. Finally had enough, got educated on investing, and our union pushed to include Vanguard. We now have access to their superior index funds and super low fees. I couldn’t be happier.
