Great interview with Jack Brennan.
Well, you see a whole another segment of the market, it's been created through places like Vanguard, Fidelity, Charles Schwab, and few others that, had in many ways been traditional, do-it-yourself places and now offer a large and robust financial-advice programs at 25 to 30 basis points.

This was great. Thank you for posting. A couple comments that caught my ear.

1. Mr. Brennan likes low cost, low turnover, actively managed funds. According to him, these funds, in moderation, can give your portfolio a unique tilt.

2. He sees private equity playing a larger role in the portfolios of the average investor. He then said, however, that from the data he’s seen, most private equity returns can’t beat buy-and-hold indexing.

Any other take-aways from anyone?
