Default Autopilot, USPFA, Legacy Wealth Management?

For those who have been using any of these three methods to manage their FDX 401k my question is--Are you making money in the long run. What has been your returns, time frame, costs etc?

Why not just use a target retirement fund with Vanguard?

Ok, here's a post for you. I don't use them. I know 2 retirees that used Legacy wealth management. Both liked it. They have regular presentations at the planet where they show there returns if you are so inclined.

I've been with them for 2 yrs and so far not impressed. Lucca has has to figure several things out (like selling too early causes us extra high charges), he calle this last downturn way too late and so far, as a result his numbers for past 12mos are pretty bad. If the market actually recovers like it did yesterday, luccas advice will really hurt since he's had us 100% in MM when the Dow was quite a bit lower.

That Legacy stuff just annoys me because the guy takes up 50% of every Jetflyer.

This is from USPFA's latest newsletter. If you are someone who doesn't want to watch things day to day and analyze all the options available to us, you can't beat it for $120/yr. As he explains constantly on his site and in the newsletter, you can do it your own way if you want. Yeah you can get in or out a little sooner than his models, but you have to roll the dice. The long term results is a no brainer for me...
