FATAL FUNDS

Confused by the typical investment fee called Assets Under Management? So was I, and I've been at this a while and have an MBA in Personal Financial Planning.
After several years of investing and researching newsletters, I've written about this in my fiction novel: FATAL FUNDS. Just released and available on Amazon in Kindle and paperback. My goal in FATAL FUNDS is to educate the reader through storytelling in the hopes that essential financial terms will be memorable. FATAL FUNDS is based on true events - confluence of two planners in my life. AUM is controversial, and every investor must understand what they are paying for.
