If you asked me about IRA's and the 401K's, I would tell you, you should absolutely check out a self-directed IRA.

Response from American IRA, LLC
As any reputable company would be, American IRA, LLC was highly disappointed to see this review of our company. We make every effort to maintain each of our clients’ trust through consistent, excellent customer service and efficient transaction processing. This issue appears to have escalated to the point of a negative review by a former client, following the decision of our CEO, Jim Hitt, to resign as this clients’ retirement account administrator. At the onset of any account, we clearly communicate our fee structure and instructions regarding transactional processes to our clients. While we make every effort to work with a client, after a period of time, we reserve the right to end a relationship if we deem it not beneficial for both parties. In this case, the client had accumulated numerous hours worth of billable time for special services he had requested. Mr. Hitt agreed to waive the Special Services Fee for this account, in an effort to expedite the client’s requested transaction and the closure of his account. American IRA, LLC strives to make every effort to provide our clients with outstanding service. Our clients expect quick and efficient investment processing within 48 hours with every transaction. From their first call, they receive personalized attention from our experienced and knowledgeable staff. Please feel free to contact our office at 828-257-4949 if you have any questions. We will be happy to hear from you.
