Most Overrated Job

Money Managers. Period. Many have no idea how to make you money, and don't pick the right stocks. On top of all this, you have to pay them 2% of your total account value every year REGARDLESS if they made you money or not. This is extremely unfair. I will never invest money and give my money to money managers. I don't respect their jobs because their jobs are BS. They have no more education than college education and this is seriously just educated gambling. My advice: Don't give your money to money managers. They help themselves more than they will ever help you.
