    Default Best company's to open Roth IRA

    I am interested in opening a Roth IRA. I have been doing a little research and I am thinking either Vanguard or Fidelity. Any input on this subject would great.

    Either company sounds like a good choice, insofar as being large, and having a lot of funds to chose from. I'm guessing you've already researched fees for the various funds. So, if the costs are close, the deciding point may well be customer service. That would entail having a good user friendly, yet secure website, a toll free number with advisers, and a good number of "brick and mortar" offices for a face to face meeting. I can't speak for Vanguard, but I've been happy with Fidelity in that respect. They seem to have offices in a lot of medium sized and larger cities.
    I'm right 96% of the time. I don't sweat the other 5% .......................

    Vanguard has worked out well for me, and so has T Rowe Price. I didn't really see anything good with Fidelity. I have an IRA with American Century's Ultra fund that has done well for me.

    Either Vanguard or Fidelity is fine. I personally invest with Fidelity because they offer index mutual funds that are competitive in fees with Vanguard and Fidelity's website is very user friendly if you choose to invest in ETFs instead. Also, Fidelity offers a nice deal on American Express credit cards that offer cash back that can be directly deposited into your Fidelity account, which is very convenient.
