Investing Resources

Our favorite DIY – IRA brokerage is Fidelity for the ease of use of the website and variety of ETF and index fund offerings.

Our favorite IRA Roboadvisor is M1. It has the lowest fees and is fee-free once you hit $10,000 invested. They also have a great high-yield savings account offering.

If you have a 401(k), 403(b), 457, or similar, from a job you no longer work for you need to roll that money over into an IRA to regain control of it. Capitalize will roll it over for you for free.
