If you go with Primerica, you get a professional expert to help you pick suitable mutual funds for you. They have lots of quality mutual fund families that has low annual expenses.
If go on the internet, you have to pick your own mutual funds, which is a gamble with your money if you don't know what to look for.

I really think highly of Vanguard. My family has been their customer since the 70's (my grandmother started us with them).
Their funds perform well, and they keep their expenses down which is also important. Vanguard has a lot of free information on their website. I would also recommend Morningstar.com which gives a lot of free information (as well as premium service for an additional fee).
1- Stick with the funds that Morningstar gives at least three stars.
2- Stay away from the funds you have to buy through a broker.
3- Be sure you understand how to design your portfolio with the appropriate level of risk (and return) for your situation. |

Well you are already on your way. If you already own stocks then Primerica and ING aren't your best best as they are Mutual Funds (CDs, Savings etc...) only. Primerica is not going to be your best choice anyway unless you need term life insurance because the whole plan works on that basis.
If you are interested in more stocks then zecco.com has the best stock comissions (free for the first 30) but they charge for most other things. If you are interested in some service but good all around fees (not the cheapest) go with a Fidelity or Schwab. TD Ameritrade or E-Trade are also pretty good but cheaper than Schwab or Fidelity.
If you are simply looking for mutual funds I would try Vanguard or any of the above companies since they give you the best variety. |

Joining an investment club is an excellent idea. The cost will be quite minimal and, if you actively participate, you will learn much. After gaining some experience with your club, obtain a membership with AAII (a group designed to support individual investors) and you can get much free excellent information on their site (aaii.com) without joining. Additionally, sites like Yahoo Finance, investorsbusinessdaily.com, businessweek.com, forbes.com and motleyfool.com have tons of information available for investors. I continue to believe that an individual investor can do very well in the stock market with research and discipline.
Good luck. |

If you already own individual stocks, then you've already ventured out. Handing your investments to a company will mean less responsibility. If you've been doing a good job, why pay a broker? |

Primerica is life insurance and a reverse pyramid scheme. Don't be fooled...I have never seen a decent looking office. |

I agree; stay away from Primerica. If you want to work with a financial advisor, check out the article "How Not to Hire a Financial Advisor" at www.extramayo.org/ and click the "individuals" tab.
The problem is, if your account isn't big enough, no worthwhile financial advisor will take you on as a client; they're too busy working with people who have a lot of money. It's a real dilemma for people starting out. Try opening a Vanguard brokerage account -- not the cheapest but Vanguard provides a lot of helpful information, and avoids the kind of "information" that makes you want to trade too frequently. |
