vapidparagon | Where to invest? |
I am looking into starting an IRA and opening a couple of money market accounts. I was drawn to Vanguard, but, they don't seem to have someone I can physically sit down with. What companies with branch offices would you suggest, and why? |

PLEASE, go to FPANET.ORG and find a financial advisor in your area who works ONLY on a n hourly basis. It will cost you money, but much less than if you don't pay for the advice and pay commissions. The FPA website directs you only to CFP's who are fiduciaries. If you don't know what these terms mean, use Google or Ask, etc. |

I would NOT open a money market account right now. IRA is ok but you are limited to 4k a year (5k next year) as for offices Edward Jones, AG Edwards, Bank of America or your local bank will help here as well. But remember with ira you have to think long term and withdrawing it is not that easy they have special restrictions placed on them. |

IRA denotes the individual retirement account and can substitute or complement a 401 K. There are 3 varieties of IRAs available: Roth IRAs, Traditional IRAs and Simple IRAs. Traditional IRAs offer you tax advantages whenever you deposit or add money to your account. On the other hand, a Roth IRA offers you the maximum tax benefit when you withdraw money from your account. A Simple IRA is just like a 401K with lower contribution limit, but cheaper and has lesser paperwork.

I'm not sure which company to go with but look into if you qualify for a Roth IRA. By far the best way to start out when investing, and when the day comes where you need to withdrawal from he account, you get it tax free. |

Create IRA account first. then let's educate more about what its can do. IRA have max contribution / annum, but not necessary have limit how much can it grow isn't it? Except at certain age, you can withdraw as tax free.
How about you don't withdraw then you still can take advantage of it any time that you like, would that help?
These are trivial question and the best answer that you know and expert yourself. Keep learning it, ask more question as needed.
Best of Luck |

I have worked in the mutual fund industry for 20 years for companies with brokers and agents that sell funds. The firms with offices have people to advise you - most don't want to deal with small accounts. They make money on commissions. If they take your account they will recommend funds that will pay them a commission. It is only fair that they get paid. After the sale they don't make much so they are likely to want you to trade. Are their honest brokers sure but there are also ones that just want to make money for themselves.
I invest in Vanguard. You can go to their web site or call their 800 number and talk to someone who probably doesn't get paid a commission. Vanguard and all mutual fund companies make money by charging a small percentage of the assets they manage. Some also have to pay brokers a commission or sales charge.
I put my daughters in Vanguard's Star Fund. It invests in bonds, large, small and international stocks. Well balanced, no commissions or sales charge if you buy direct from them, low cost. Only $1000 minimum to open the account. Their Money Market Prime Money Market Fund is always one of the best rated - currently yielding 5.05% |
