A lot of us invest our retirement money in target date funds, because they seem simple and easy to understand. But an article in Forbes says that’s not necessarily the best way to go. What’s wrong with using a target date fund? Think about all the fees we love to hate: Checking account fees … airline baggage fees … vacation resort fees … one marketing genius even came up with something called a convenience fee! But of all the different fees we have to pay, the Money Talks News website says the worst one, by far, is the retirement account fee. Hear how Jerry saved one couple $40,000 in fee's!

When you think about the nest egg you’d like to have, a specific number probably comes to mind. Maybe it’s a million dollars – it could be less than that, or even more than that.

That’s an interesting idea – but how would you figure that out, since our accounts generally list that one, big, number at the bottom?

There’s a term that occasionally pops up in the financial media … “lifetime income.” Market Watch cites a survey in which one-in-three people believe they can get lifetime income from a mutual fund. And one-in-five think it comes from a target date fund. Let’s try to clear this up: First, is there really such a thing as lifetime income, or is that just some kind of marketing term? And if there is, how does it work?
