Not sure if this is where I go but still

So I invest, usually 500 a month out of my check ...here is the issue right now I have 72k invested in the app Stash and 18k invested in through Edward Jones.
Really where I work our investments go through Edward Jones so I started using Stash as a secondary investment. Now Stash has surpassed Edward Jones as I've devoted more money towards it over the last couple of years. I also put money from my savings I to Stash because I was doing well. Should I remove the Stash Money (currently being charged 1% a month) or stay the course?

I've thought about going to Vanguard and managing everything myself.

I've liked the simplicity of stash and my dividends go into my card account

Comes through work, so it is easy to use since it is pretax

What does Stash provide for you to take 1% a month?
That’s outrageous. Go to vanguard and pick some total market funds.
Edward Jones is a known waste, but if that’s the only vehicle your employer provides for tax deferrals then it’s probably better than not taking advantage at all.

Unless Im mistaken stash isnt managing anything, they just provide a really easy to use platform for beginning investors and rename ETFs in their app. You can own exactly what you have in stash, elsewhere. Ive used it, I liked it, it was easy. And you can buy partial shares which is cool for a weekly auto deposit of 100/200 dollars and you can throw it in amazon or apple or "invest in buffet." I dont know if I'd keep 79k in there though. Vanguard is probably the right answer

Vanguard, stat. 1% a month is ridiculous.

Stash website and several reviews say fee is "only" .25% annually or $1 per month for balances below $5k. 1% per month sounded too outrageous to be true. It worked to get the OP started so that's a huge win now it's time to move to a lower cost broker, Vanguard or Fidelity. Start funding Roth IRA with future contributions Consider using some of existing balance if needed to fully fund Roth but you'll owe capital gains.

Edward Jones is a RIP off

also look at robo diversified management like Schwab intelligent portfolios. No fees for the service.

I'm going to assume you mean 1% a year, charged monthly, and not 1% a month.
Your EJ account, is it a retirement account through your employer like a 401K?
