I know you all have probably gone through this on the net before, but I need some info. I have been looking into an IRA account with mutual funds. If I go through a broker they charge $30 setup fee and a max $30 per year maint. fee (figures from Merryl Lynch). If I go directly through the mutual fund they charge only $6 to $7.50 per year. Now my question is, is there any difference in the services I get by having a broker or going through the mutual fund directly. The difference is about 1% on $2000. Bob Gilbert pyuxa!eiss!rg
