Most of our stuff is with Vanguard. Excellent service, low fees. All that said, especially for a Roth IRA, you may wish to research their "no brainer" (target retirement) fund. It's a mix of widely diversified stocks, including international, and bonds. You tell them your target retirement date. They then asset allocate for you, sliding more heavily toward the bonds side as your retirement date nears. A 21 year old opening this account would be very heavily into stocks...an older person less so. As it should be.
