### How much will SPLV's expense ratio cost me over 30 years?

On a $10,000 investment compounding at 7% gross return, a 0.25% expense ratio quietly compounds against your balance every year.

### Why does SPLV cost more than a fund like VOO?

SPLV is a passive index fund (current expense ratio 0.25%). Differences from broad-market ETFs like VOO usually come from index licensing fees, asset class (bond funds typically run cheaper than equity), or fund scale (smaller funds spread fixed operating costs across less AUM).
