- Yes, most of the Financial funds have a 0.25% 12b-1
- fee. I hear Founders Special is going to impose such a
- fee as well. Seems to be an unfortunate trend today...
-
- BUT I'm willing to pay 0.25% a year to get a 20-90 % return;
- mixing political emotions with investments is not good for the latter.
- What counts is the bottom line.
