Then Ben talks about tools in people’s financial plans, such as mutual funds, that do not have the rate of returns they used to have.

Ben explains how he puts a lot of effort into crafting plans and how financial strategies sometimes are worth their high fees. Megan then explains how she and Ben often have that same mindset with buying nice items for the house that end up lasting a long time.
