where do i open a roth ira?

[Guest nastradanous]

Hello, can someone tell me where i need to go to open a roth ira account. I read one book on roth ira and understand it, but i dont know where to go and open an account. I did a search and found www.fidelity.com www.scottrade.com www.sharebuilder.com , but im not sure if this is where im suppose to sign up for one. Also can i be informed if there are any hidden fees and such so i dont get ripped off. Thanks in advance - my email is nastradanous@aol.com

Any brokerage firm or mutual fund company will be able to establish a Roth IRA. Using a brokerage firm rather than a mutual fund company will give you a wider investment choice.

Try your local bank as well. I prefer a brokerage account as well, but you may want to check the features , benefits and fees of them all and choose the one better suited for you
