That advice seems like a red flag. There are way more options to diversify investments in an IRA than a 401k, you can also invest in the same funds through an IRA that are available to your 401k. Either way you end up paying fees to someone as well.
Oh sure, he’s not saying don’t diversify. That was specifically about the small amounts from previous employers. Like, I had worked at a place for about a year, and the amount in that account wouldn’t be worth him taking over.
