When we think about investment costs, we tend to focus on the fees and costs associated with buying and selling investments. But have you considered there might also be a cost to not investing?
This week's Smart Investing discusses costs in all its various forms, from why investing is one of few industries where the less you pay, the more you get, to how dollar-cost averaging is such a simple but powerful way to build wealth. Lastly, we look at the cost of not participating in the market or cashing out when times get tough.
