For people willing to be involved with investing the tools are finally available for us to do the same level of job brokers once did for us. I guess there will alway be a group of people that can't be bothered to learn about where there money goes- they just want it taken care of. Seems like a scary idea to me- I can't imagine giving my money to someone with no real idea what they will do with it. It will be interesting to see how the industry changes over the next dozen years. Couldn’t agree more with you stock scribe.

These days there is so much freely available information that "old fashioned" brokers have almost become redundant. I haven’t had a broker for about 9 years now.
