Warren Buffett has been handling much of my portfolio for many years and has done quite well of course. It has been nice to have someone much smarter than I am invest for me. I started investing in BRK in the 1980s. Some of my portfolio is now in index funds and ETFs at Vanguard and Schwab. I love REITs and have owned them for years, picking up some for pennies on the dollar of their actual worth during the big dip @ 2009. (CUBE hit 2.02, I got some 2.5-2.6; it is now @54 and has paid dividends all along). I have been my own financial advisor and am happy with the results. I see no need to let somebody skim 1% off my investment value every year for any reason.
