It sounds like you don't know how to manage your mutual fund. Yes you have someone to do that for you but you know what.. if you're losing money multiple years in a row then it's time to change funds or find a new person to manage your mutual fund.

Or do what makes most sense. Take control and invest your own money.

Honestly the money lost is no ones fault but you're own. If nothing else you could've at best put the money into a CD that wouldgive you enough for the rate of infation over the course of 5 years. You're just about guaranteed to not lose money.

Again an example of how you are responsible for how your money grows, not the government.

And I don't have any capital gains, only capital losses, and 20% of nothing is still nothing
nope.. but increase the capital gains tax and those companies that are in your mutual fund will see even further losses and you'll lose even more of your 20k. I suggest you start researching funds and companies to see where your money is most profitable. Obviously it's not where you have it now.
