Financial advisors don’t just handle investments. You’re generally paying for all their services. And the market doesn’t average 11.5%

S&P averages ten percent. The narrator likely knows that and used the other figures to make it easy for viewers to understand.

It’s even worse than that. Long term avg expected return in the stock market is ~ 7%, but there have been several periods where the return was negative or zero spanning a decade or more. (I used to value pensions - determine the required annual investment by the sponsoring entity to pay all the contractual benefits in the future. Any estimate using a rate higher than 7% was a huge red flag). California public pension plans became insolvent because they used very optimistic rate of return assumptions like 11.5% was the primary reason they were underfunding. So, often an investment advisor fees will eliminate most if not all of the return.

Yeah, how to take a percentage of the cut the mutual funds they offer charge, so they get their 1.5 plus half the funds 4% fee so really theyre taking 3.5%. Finanicial planners just fleece people that are scared or lazy.
