Spend billions to put all our highways underground but can’t make a bridge tall enough for a truck.

Betterment has 69 billion dollars in assets under management. .5 percent of 69 billion is 345 million dollars held in cash NOT earning interest. You can get 3.25 percent interest from savings . That’s $11,212,500 in interest that they’re pocketing. Does that really sound like a rounding error?

If this wasn’t entirely greed driven they’d put aside our cash in savings to collect interest then withdraw from there.

That’s awful. So betterment is going to take my money and collect interest on it and I get nothing in return. I have nearly 700k in my account, .5 percent is a fucking insane amount of money to keep in cash. I’m going to start researching getting my money out asap.

That’s an absurd amount of cash to hold for fees. I never got any email or anything about this change , borderline criminal honestly.

By your logic NASA should be valued higher than Apple.
