Is Low Cost Index Investing sustaible?

I have been thinking about this for awhile and would like to ask the community here.
Do you think this environment of low fees investing, (low platform fees, low expense ratios) is sustainable?
In this trend of low cost investing a race to the bottom? If that is the case, what do you think will be the result of this race?

Yes it is the more successful strategy.

but doing it should happen with well diversified, cheap and large passive indexing ETFs, not with unit trusts or mutual funds.

what to avoid:

Can you simply invest in one or a few low cost index funds (ie Vanguard S&P 500), putting in money every month, and hold it all the way until retirement like Warren Buffet recommends?

As a rather new and young investor would it be more advisable to invest my money on low-cost index fund or ETFs?

Recently i heard a lot of negative views on ILPs (High distribution costs, fees etc). Is it really better to just get a term and invest with low cost. investment platform. ILPs really have no value?

Hi, I am new to investing. How can one invest in S&P500 - $500/mth, low cost with minimal supervision? And what are the accounts I should open?

I’m hoping to invest in index funds (dollar cost averaging method, lump sum each month from my salary). Any suggestions for which global ETFs are worth investing for long term? What about Vanguard?
