As Chegg has plummeted in value due to competition from AI tools like ChatGPT, investors must embrace innovative, forward-thinking companies rather than outdated ones. Plus, while mutual funds may have higher fees compared to ETFs, deciding to switch should depend on long-term investment goals rather than solely on expense ratios or capital gains taxes. And, Adam Nash, co-founder of Daffy explains donor-advised funds (DAFs), tax-advantaged accounts that make charitable giving easier.
