Why Vanguard Is a Good Low Cost Provider
The speaker suggests that for most people, index investing and dollar cost averaging with a low-cost provider like Vanguard is a suitable approach that typically outperforms other investment strategies. They mention that deviating from this approach would require a deep understanding of the investment manager's process. If an individual cannot accurately assess investment performance without focusing on short-term results, it is advised to opt for a low-cost provider like Vanguard to avoid unnecessary fees. The speaker highlights the importance of simplicity in investment strategies and points out that their competitive advantage lies in their ability to analyze businesses and apply financial concepts, rather than in any exclusive skill.
