In addition to the calculators and automated advice that MeepMoop will generate, I would like to write a set of blog post that explain particular topics that are important, or not intuitive, or not covered by the brief descriptions we incorporate in the advice tools. Here are a few ideas for posts I'd like to write:
The value of Liquid Savings (with clear numerical examples as to why Betterment is flat out wrong on that topic).
Fund selection (low cost index funds, target retirement date funds, and why most financial service providers are not worth using).
Roth versus traditional accounts and the tax benefits of these investment vehicles.
Debt (when to pay debt versus invest; debt consolidation; benefits/features of government sponsored student loans).
