I have a brokerage account and Roth IRA that are currently actively managed by an advisor. This advisor has high fees (2% AUM/year) and I would like to transfer my Roth to something like Fidelity or Vanguard and start dollar cost averaging low cost funds. I was looking at taking out $7,000 (after tax) from the brokerage and putting that into my Roth to max out my 2025 contribution (wont be able to do it before the 2024 deadline). I figured that would be best since I am in a relatively low tax bracket at the moment.
Does anyone have any thoughts on why this wouldn’t be a good idea? I hope to get the rest of the brokerage out of the advisors management in the future as well but starting with the Roth. TIA!
