Types of investment accounts audience targeting

This is a 2 option poll with 100 respondents targeting Age range (35 44, 45 54, 65+, 55 64), Primary source of investment advice (Robo Advisor, Human Advisor), and Types of investment accounts (Simple Ira, Roth 401(K), 401(K), Traditional Brokerage Account, Roth Ira, Ira (Traditional)). A sample of responses:

• The investment firm has direct access - they are the invest part of investment. Third parties are winging it on a song and hoping their magical algorithms and guess work works.
• I agree because investments are not determined by who is doing them it is how the economy is doing.
• I think the third party account may find things that I missed or overlooked.
• While I trust my investment firm it is to their best interest to move money in certain ways. An independent concern may have a different conclusion because they are not privy to the investment firm's plan.
• My investment portfolio had a very bad year last year, I am not making progress on my goal, and the firm's fees are higher than what I should be paying, so I have to respond with B. The risk and some benchmarks are acceptable and it is hard to feel good about making an investment choice in the current environment so I can imagine a third-party responding either way, but on balance I should have done better.
