I opened mine with Capitol One 360 because my cash was all there. I regret that now because I've bought all Vanguard funds and paid unnecessary fees. I'm planning to move everything to Vanguard.
Vanguard. Low fees = more money for ME to compound over the decades. I like the website, too. I had money in some other brokerage places and it was SO hard to find info on their website. Everything's been transferred to vanguard.
Vangaurd. I feel like I need to put my spiel in my siggie.
They are awesome - the leading provider of low-cost index funds, great website and customer service, and they have a unique business model where their investors (clients) own the company, which helps incentivize them to act in their clients' best interest (rather than their shareholders who are all about maximizing profit).
My husband had his at Vanguard and I had an old 401k that was rolled to a really bad IRA (like was growing at the rate of a savings account), so I rolled it to Vanguard on his recommendation and have been happy ever since. I find the site very easy to navigate and they have a lot of fund options and low fees.
