I have a 401k with a former employer that I'd like to convert into a self-directed IRA. The 401k account is with Fidelity.
Seeing the love for Vanguard funds on this forum I'm leaning towards creating an IRA directly with Vanguard and moving the funds there.
Fidelity assures me that if I roll the funds into an IRA with them, they have funds that match Vanguard in terms of performance and fees.
Another option would be to roll the funds into an account with a "neutral" entity (say Schwab or Scottrade) so I have access to funds from many institutions.
Advice on these options or suggestions for alternatives are welcome.
Thanks all!
