My ameriprise advisor is my boss's wife and I've never had a problem or felt that I've been treated unfairly. I only have a portion of my investments in AXP funds as they don't seem to perform as well as some other funds out there so it hasn't been an issue of costing me much money. I've never felt ...

I do most of my retirement investment with Ameriprise financial. I think the main thing is to do something, anything at a young age. Yes, you want a reputable firm to work with, but you need to make an effort of your own as well. Try to sock away at least 10% of your gross income if not 20%. Max out...
