Your life, your future. Now becky quick. Millions of people depend on their ira to fund their retirement. Sharon epperson has more. Former engineer ronald tusy is spending his retirement much like he imagined he would. What he didnt plan on was a prolonged legal battle with his former employer, abb, over his 401 k plan. It was very difficult to figure out exactly what it was costing you. He eventually filed a class action lawsuit, claiming the company failed to comply with federal law, causing Plan Participants to incur unnecessary and improper fees. We spent a year and nine months looking into industry practices and the abb plan and i came away convinced that people were being ripped off for their retirement assets. A Missouri Federal Court ruled in favor of tusy, but no one has received a penny. Since the case is still on appeal, abb said it could not comment on an open case but did say benefit offerings are reviewed regularly. Plan sponsor really need to be educated on, well, then whos getting paid . How are they getting paid . Along with a rise in 401 k lawsuits over the past several years, 401 k fees have been declining. But ronald tusy says Many Companies still need to do more. It should be simple, it should be straight forward what the cost is to have a particular fund. For on the money, im sharon epperson. 4. 7 trillion, thats how much americans are holding in their 401 k plans.

That will spell out all the different fees for the plan and also for the mutual funds within there and gives you a lot of information you need to know. Probably the line thats most important is Expense Ratio, right . Normal fees should be Something Like what under that Expense Ratio . They should ideally be less than 1 . It doesnt sound like much, if im a consumer, it doesnt get me excited. What does that mean over time . If you have 25,000 in your 401 k plan, its growing at 7 . With that low fee, it going to grow to 226,000. That 1 difference, say you now are paying a 1. 5 expense fee, thats only going to be 163,000. Thats a 28 drop in your Retirement Savings for that difference of 1 . It makes a big difference. For most investors, a really nice index fund is all you need and it has a lot lower fees.

Yes. You have a hard time going wrong with Something Like that. What happens if you look at your 401 k plan and you realize youre paying too much . What are your options . You can look to see can you invest in maybe your spouses 401 k . Make sure youre maxing that out. After you max that out, you can look to open up an i. R. A. If youre make sure you at least put enough money in there that you get the full match from your employer. Because youre leaving money on the table. Yes, youre giving away free money. If a company didnt do due diligence, maybe they didnt try to. Truly understanding the plan administrative fees is difficult because often theyre buried.

With the olympics less than three weeks away, the threat of the zika virus has caused many athletes to withdraw from the games. Its just one of the topics we talked about with the Cleveland Clinic president and ceo. I think the cdc has done a wonderful job in identifying areas where zika is prevalent. Theyre currently following about 500 women who are pregnant and who have been exposed to zika. But right now there are very few areas in the United States where you really have a major threat from the zika virus. Is that something that could change rapidly . The cdc has warned we could see transmission in the transcontinental United States. Yes, but we count on the cdc to follow it. Whats reasonable to expect and what are the best Case Scenarios . Are there a number of ways we can reduce the incidence of cancer. One to decrease the incidence of smoking, two the decrease obe obesity and increase detection. What will work to wiping cans are out . I think genomics plays a big part in it. Do you think in five, ten, 20 years wipe out the incidents of cancer . I doubt it. It will become a more chronic disease. Prostate cancer is one of those and several others are headed in the same direction. As people age, the incidence of cancer goes up. Youre not going to see it go completely away. We are now in year six in the obamacare act. The bad news is Health Care Insurance costs are rising. And theres a big pullback. Whats happening from the hospitals perspective . Say the Cleveland Clinic, 60 of our payment and revenue comes from medicare, medicaid and people who have no pay and dont pay at all. So 40 is coming from the private insurance. The private insurance is increasing at 1 a year and government pay is increasing at about 1 a year. Now, in the past we have lost money on medicare, medicaid and we have made up the difference in private insurance. Now, private insurance, as it becomes less common, is not making up that gap for us. So we have to reduce our costs of providing care. One of the things the Cleveland Clinic can now do is offer consultations from a doctor from the Cleveland Clinic on an ipad. Its more efficient for care givers and it an opportunity to expand the care to remote areas. So youre monot just the ceo and president of the Cleveland Clinic, youre a doctor. Would you do Something Like that online . Absolutely.

And calling all you boys and girls, the first day of comiccon held in san diego. When his finance career left him in the cold, making ice cream in his kitchen with some unusual ingredients. And now, it has led him to a recipe for sweet success. I was in Corporate Finance for six years. I was let go from my job in august of 2011. I had some time on my hands. I dusted off my ice cream maker that my wife gave me eight years ago. I bought him an ice maker a year after we got married. We had some time off to relax. I said, you know what, im going to make some ice cream. I always thought it was a great ingredient for ice cream, so i made the first batch. Im not an ice cream fanatic. I tried it, i had my wife try it. I was like, its actually really good. When i saw how well received it was from her, i thought we had something unique. We started production, we rented some kitchen space, a caterers kitchen, working from 7 00 p. M. To 3 00 in the morning, brewing tea, juicing ginger, calling buyers to get into the store. We launched in just 20 independent specialty grocers in connecticut. We entered into a few competitions. And went to some trade shows. We were a finalist in Martha Stewarts competition. We were a finalist for the sophies award, kind of the oscars for the food industry. We had buyers from stores saying, we heard about this new product. Wed like to try it out. Now were producing about 15 to 20,000 pints a month. I love building a company. I love making ice cream. Now were kind of all in. Joining us right now is mario light, the founder of terrific ice cream. Mario, im looking at this stuff, and i know that you made it sound so easy. Its not that easy. What are some of the challenges you face when you start your own business like this . Theres a few, as far as the product, you know, its kind of hard to get really authentic tea flavor into a fullfat ice cream. So that took us the better part of a year. We wanted to use a freshbrewed tea to flavor it. It took a few months, about ten months to get the first version of it together in terms of what the Ice Cream Base should be and how we should use the tea and brew it and so forth. When you first were able to get into stores, what was the biggest hurdle that you had to overcome . Or how did you do it . First, i was using my skills, i guess, as a banker. Just cold calling. Just saying, hey, theres this new product. Its unique. Theres nothing else out there on the market like it. Very clean label. I hit all the trendy hot buttons that, you know, retailers are looking for. What advice would you give people who are thinking of quitting their jobs, chasing their dreams . I think the first thing is to make sure youre passionate about whatever youre going to do. Because youre going to spend a lot of hours doing it. Youre going to work at least as many hours or more on it. Make sure you do market research. Test your assumptions. Make sure youre addressing a gap in the market or a trend. And the other thing is, make sure you have enough more financing than you think youre going to need. Because things happen. On the personal side, make sure you have enough personal finances, if youre the sole earner or what have you to live on. It will be a while before you snz make money off of it. Ive got to try this. This is chamomile. This is lavender blueberry. I will try cam chamomile first. I will admit, i dont particularly like chamomile tea. Its really good. Thank you. Thats very vanillay. Theres no added honey in it. People think theres honey in it. Its all from the flower. This is really good. Where can people find this . We distribute in pretty much all the whole foods, from maine to new jersey. Were also just launching in shop rite. Almost all the locations in shop rite. Stop n shop, kings. Lavender blueberry is good, but the chamomile is really creamy. That was the sophie award winner last year. It was a big deal for us. Congratulations on chasing your dreams and catching them. Thank you. Thank you for being here, mario. Thank you. Im becky quick. Thank you for joining us. Next week, something new to worry about. Perfect.
