i like how these are consistently racist.

>actively managed funds

>>1492296
hate to break it to you , but every business is an "actively managed fund"

why would you invest in a business where everyone in the office is just sitting around on their hands skimming money off you?
cant you do that urself?

>why would you invest in a business where everyone in the office is just sitting around on their hands skimming money off you?
because the expense fees are lower than a fund with an army of fuckheads doing fuck all

Or
>Keeping my gold buried in the backyard

Well that all depends. Could you live off $2000 a year?

The funny thing about passive investing is that it can't exist without active investing. The only reason asset prices change because of supply and demand and price discovery, which depends on active investing. Basically, passive investors are leeches.

Interesting. What would be the difference between investing in a index fund for example the s&p500 and buying every individual stock itself and swing trade urself? I don't know shit as you can see

The only thing traders provide for us passive investors is liquidity.

More work and higher costs because you have to pay for each single order.

>Yeh man. Stocks never rise or fall based on actual company performance!
LOL. Do you think stock prices change because they feel like it? Somebody has to buy them at a higher or lower price, stupid.

If traders didn't exist, your investment would be worthless dummy. Do you think your investment just intrinsically appreciates?
