Investors' obsessions with low management fees is causing many to miss out on helpful financial advice, argues personal finance columnist Rob Carrick. Punting for the lowest-cost investment options, nominally exchange-traded fund products, may save money upfront, but it may backfire is financial plans aren't developed and stuck to. "If you can't manage those ETFs effectively, the higher costs of robo and human advice can be a good value," wrote Carrick.
