Intercst, I don’t know about the crony capitalism part, but this program is your “index fund held long-term” strategy writ large.

Yes, I understand that. Trump accounts are betting on the overall success of the Trump economy. Though, I’d want to wait and see if we’re actually getting a low-fee index fund.

Years ago the Thrift Savings Plan for Federal Employees operated with a 2 basis point expense ratio. Now under Trump’s guidance it doubled to 3 to 5 basis points despite a much larger asset base and larger economy of scale.

I suspect some favored crony capitalist is making bank on this.
