If you buy a managed mutual fund, as opposed to a passive index fund, you are paying a percentage management fee to the mutual fund company. On top of that you are paying your advisor fees to manage your money. This does not make sense to me. We buy mutual funds ourselves and pay only the mutual fund fees.
