I put identical money in Betterment, Wealthfront, and an assortment of Vanguard funds at the same time a few years back.
Vanguard was the best performing, Wealthfront 2nd, and Betterment 3rd.
Vanguard took an evening of research and reading, but I havent touched it since. (I probably should)
Ive also considered using Vanguard's robo service but I havent looked into it recently.
And someone smarter on money stuff than I am should explain to me why paying taxes every time Betterment and Wealthfront rebalance still keeps me ahead because it sure feels like Im getting fucked on that one every year.
