I completely agree with you. I studied John Bogle's method of investing, and I have been invested with Vanguard for many years. I think Mr. Bogle had a huge effect on transforming the mutual fund business.
I found your story very interesting. I am your age (80's), and I find a strong correlation between your investments and mine. I came from a relatively low income family, worked to get an aerospace engineering degree, worked for NASA, and helped send astronauts to the Moon. I worked hard over the years, and I invested what I could in the stock market. I also invested in Vanguard Group and TD Ameritrade. My TD Ameritrade accounts are being taken over by Charles Schwab, and I am not happy about that. Can you explain your reasons for closing your Schwab account?
If you move your Schwab investments into Vanguard, you will reduce your SIPC insurance coverage on your investments.
