Your T-REX Score represents the percentage of your Total Gain you actually get to keep

Total Gain: the total gain produced by your underlying investments before fees (based on continuous reinvestment of annual gains throughout).
Lost in Fees: total amount lost in fees (fees paid plus the “drag” arising from the reduced rate of return).
Gain You Keep: portion of total gain you actually keep.
Total Value: your original investment plus the gain you keep.

How to Determine Your T-REX Score

What’s the value? What’s the cost?

Banks, insurers, fund companies, brokers and advisors provide service including access to investments and, in many cases, some degree of advice. Your T-REX Score reveals the true cost of this service. Now you can make a “value” judgement. Are you are receiving your fair share of investment returns?

Happy With Your T-REX Score?

You may be satisfied with a very high T-REX Score. Or you may find a lower T-REX Score acceptable because the service you receive is worth it. If so, well done. But what if you aren’t satisfied with your T-REX Score? What if you are not sure what to think?
