Investment fees come in many forms: advisor fees (typically 0.5% to 1.5% of assets), fund expense ratios (0.03% for index funds to 1.5%+ for actively managed funds), and trading costs. Each fee by itself may seem small, but they compound against you every year, just like returns compound for you.
This calculator uses a simplified model with constant returns and constant fees for illustration. Actual investment returns vary year to year. The purpose is to show the long-term impact of fee differences, not to predict specific outcomes.
