Any place can start a Roth IRA if it makes sense. The hard part is picking the mutual funds. If you want to do it yourself, Yahoo Finance, MSNBC, or a million other websites can give you a good idea. If you would prefer to get the advice of a pro, you will have to pay some sort of sales load. I have no problem with these if they make sense. There are many loaded funds that outperformed the Vanguard 500 over a 5-10 year span, and I only look at net numbers.

The better wuestion is why a Roth? I know their are some benefits, but depending on your income level at a later date, the tax write off may mean more today than tax free growth.
