In addition, you need to be aware of additional fees. One folio service’s website says (in fine print, of course) that it “does charge for certain special services and does receive payment for order flow.” You must be ready to shell out the dough if you
Want to wire money out of your account — $30
Need a copy of a prior statement or transaction — $10
Hold any restricted securities (which are subject to SEC Rule 144) — $75
Close out an account — $50
The site further warns, “Note: These are today’s prices and fees, which are subject to change periodically.”
You’re simply not going to get the same level of service (and comfort) when dealing with a website-based service as you do when dealing with the leading fund companies I discuss in this book. The companies I recommend have trained representatives available by phone. Understanding and evaluating the performance of self-created funds is difficult, and unlike mutual funds, these funds have no standards or easily accessible services that report and track the performance of your customized folio (see Chapter 17 for more information on adjusting your portfolio).
It seems to me that folio services are geared toward those people who want to hold individual stocks, who trade a lot, and who seek to cap their annual trading costs. Although I prefer investing in the best mutual funds, you can invest in stocks of your own choosing — as long as you do so with a long-term perspective. But if you were going to simply buy and hold individual stocks, why would you want to pay a website-based service $290 per year?
