Fidelity vs. Vanguard: Which investment company could make you more money? I invested a hypothetical $100,000 into five different Fidelity funds and compared them against similar Vanguard funds to see which investments could generate the most wealth over 10, 20, and 30 years.

We're comparing S&P 500 index funds, total stock market funds, balanced funds, large-cap growth funds, and bond funds. The results were surprising, with one company coming out ahead by nearly $3 MILLION in our hypothetical comparison! I'll break down the returns, fees, and investment strategies to help you decide which funds might deserve a place in your retirement portfolio.
