Again, for the 3 major companies -- Vanguard, Fidelity, T.Rowe Price -- you are not charged expenses on top of the weighted average expense ratio of the underlying funds.

Prove me wrong and you get a free toaster.

Well I won't be winning a toaster because you're right, you're not charged extra expenses with these funds. I hope I didn't come off as if I was implying that.

But it is still not as clear, I will give you that.

pg 39 suggests there might be a .25% retirement fund fee, which is not the .76% mentioned above.
That's the problem with all mutual funds - very complex in their fee structures and wording of prospectii.
