I'm 26 and new to investing. I have a Roth IRA through TD Ameritrade and plan to max it out for the first time this year. I don't have enough money in the account yet to have TD Ameritrade manage it for me (They require $5000) so I've been purchasing index funds (VOO). I recently found the Robinhood app which would allow me to purchase those same index funds without the $6.95 fee every time I trade. Can someone explain to me why having a Roth IRA would be better than using the Robinhood app? Or is Robinhood the way to go?
