Mutual Quotes

•

• Human life is thus only a perpetual illusion; men deceive and flatter each other. No one speaks of us in our presence as he does of us in our absence.

• Mutual funds charge 2% per year and then brokers switch people between funds, costing another 3-4 percentage points.

It's much better to be part of a system that delivers value to the people who buy the product. But if it makes money, we tend to do it in this country.
