What is the difference between a ETF and a Mutual Fund?

Vanguard mutual funds are very attractive but require a inital deposit of ,500, I know I can buy the ETF with my sharebuilder account a few shares at a time.

When I buy a ETF is it the same as investing in the mutual fund?
Or is the price of a ETF just the value of the fund? (supply/demand)

How do I get the "Voting Record" of mutual fund managers?

Yes, It’s "Shareholder Voting Season" and I was wondering how I would determine how the Mutual Fund Managers VOTE on Stock ISSUES proposed by share holders. Voting for the Board of Directors of Corporations, and Voting for Auditors.

Does anyone know if the Mutual Fund Managers make their votes public, or if I as a collective owner of a Mutual Fund can sway a manager to vote a certain way.

If it states that mutual fund expense is $ 2000 per ,000 invested. How much will I be charged if my initial investment was 1000 but is now worth 100,000?

Mutual fund expense: 00 of every 10,000 invested. Since my investment was only 1000, would I still be charged according to what it is worth now?

Would it be terrible to pull a chunk of money from a mutual fund now while I'm job hunting after college?

I just finished an internship, and am struggling to make ends meet as a barista at starbucks while I look for a "real" job. I have a mutual fund, but I’m hesitant to pull anything from it- so I’m living like I’m completely poor right now and barely scraping by. Is this stupid? Or am I right to leave the fund alone?

Can I move a mutual fund to a Roth IRA account and not pay any taxes?

I’ve got a Vanguard mutual fund in a non-retirement account. I’ve had it about 3 years now. I’d like to move it to a Roth IRA account, but I do not want this to be a taxable event. Is there any way I can do that? Or must I sell them, pay capital gains on the earnings, and then use that money to invest in a Roth IRA.
