Say someone fell into around 7 shares of BRK.A from an inheritance. It’s being managed by some sort of broker with the standard 1% AUM fee. Everything else you have invested is with Vanguard in broad market index funds worth around $300k. Would you transfer the shares to Vanguard and eat the transfer fee to remove the yearly AUM? Also would you sell some of the BRK.A to diversify?

I have no clue what the answer to your question is.


My quick google search says that each share is like 300k? Is that right? So this would be like 2 million?

The idea with index funds and BRK is that their asset allocation is being done by the fund managers, not sure what the broker is doing fir the 1%.

It’s a 95 year old man who has it with a broker and pays the 1% for the convienence and lack of tech savvy. The 7 shares is a percentage of his total. Additionally, he has some other positions with the broker but obviously nothing nearly as substantial as the BRK.

The $300k in Vanguard is separate from the inheritance that is what the inheritor has prior.

Depends on what they are calling an Advisor. I would trust an experience RIA, not a broker.
