If you want a totally self-directed IRA, Charles Schwab (a nation-wide discount brokerage) will set one up for you with NO fees. They also charge generally smaller commissions on the transactions you choose. Of course, they give NO advice (which is what you may want). I haven't actually dealt with them since I want advice periodically, but they may be worth checking out if you want to avoid the custodial fees. Pete LaMaster NJ (201)949-0040
