This excerpt is from a YouTube video criticizing the financial industry’s reliance on assets under management (AUM) and arguing that Wall Street becomes wealthy by exploiting investors’ lack of know-how. The speaker specifically criticizes 401(k) outcomes and emphasizes that education, not complex financial products, is the remedy.

That's why Wall Street's rich, called assets under management. Why do they have assets under management? Because people don't know how to do it themselves. So they wax rich, insanely rich. That's why 401ks are so awful is they wax rich with mediocre results, playing off people's ignorance, pretending very much, pretending that they can predict the future better than you can. I'll go back to Buffett's statement. They subtract value from. The layman can do himself for sure. It's the only industry we can think of like that.
It's terrible. So education is where it's at.
