Wouldn’t Vanguard and Vanguard Low-Cost Index Funds be a very good option for nearly EVERYbody—mass affluent, high net worth, ultra high net worth, outrageously rich, etc.? Why not just send the mass affluent to Vanguard and Vanguard can take them from there?

Teresa,

Somebody actually needs to make decisions surrounding the buying, selling, allocation and rebalancing of assets. If Vanguard does that, they will charge a fee on top of the fund fees.

But, yes, “everybody”, including PIMCO is going that ETF/indexing route with Vanguard as a big beneficiary.
