Many are familiar with Vanguard for good reason. The expense ratios on their Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are among the lowest in the industry.
Unfortunately, this doesn't deliver the gift of wisdom to beat the stock market. Example: some investors exit cash during a market downturn.
That's where professionals add value. Seek an advisor who uses Vanguard, but also
There is more to investing than picking a low cost ETF. Consider working with a professional.

"Dimensional isn't for everyone, but I frequently come back to Dimensional, because of their sound investment philosophy, which is influenced by Nobel Prize winners.
They employ the above "tilts" across large portfolios with hundreds of global stocks, including U.S. stocks.
Their strategies are back tested and easy for clients to understand and commit to for long-term growth. Valor Capital Management does a nice job blending the Dimensional portfolios together for clients and rebalancing.
Add in tax-management for extra efficiency and you have a nice portfolio that helps clients feel confident.
You'll see other portfolios with lower expense ratios, but Dimensional makes life easier to adhere to a plan, because you feel more confident in your plan that is based on sound and backtested portfolio theory. Combine that confidence with behavioral discipline for a strong foundation toward helping achieve goals.
Too many investors search frantically for a better mousetrap. Dimensonal helps solve that problem, because they did the research and arrived at a reliable answer for prudent investors."
