The Truth Behind Hidden Fees in 401(k) Plans

Bloomberg's Mike Schneider reports on the hidden fees that are eroding the value of 401(k) retirement accounts. Some 78 million Baby Boomers will be heading into retirement this year, many dependent on their 401(k) plans. What many will learn, according to the AARP, is the average balance for Boomers nearing retirement is $60,000, due in part to hidden fees that can, over a lifetime of savings, skim off more than half of a 401(k) investor's potential returns.
