  • Every dollar paid in investment expenses is one less dollar invested in the markets.
  • Paying just 1% more in fund and investment expenses can cost each employee hundreds of thousands in savings over a 40-year career.
Paying 1% Less Can Make a Big Difference! $0 20 Years 30 Years 30 Years $0.36M $0.32M $0.84M $0.71M $500,000 $1,000,000 $1,500,000 $2,000,000 $1.77M $1.40M Dan Jill } With nearly$1.8M, Jillhas $376Kmore than Dan(that’s 27%)

This example shows the effect that expenses can have on your 401(k) retirement account over a career of 40 years by comparing the costs of paying 1% versus 2% on investments and how savings may accumulate. It assumes the investments have a fixed annual 7% return before expenses with no distribution or tax considerations and does not imply future returns. The example assumes each employee has a salary of $75,000 in year one and receives a 3% merit raise each year on-going. In addition, the employee contributes 5% of her salary each year and receives a 3% of salary company matching contribution.
