What happens after opening a Roth Ira in a Mutual Fund?

Hello,
I have a Roth Ira CD in a bank, I am thinking about buying a mutual fund and put my Roth Ira there instead. But, I would like to know:
-How to open a Roth Ira in a Mutual Fund?
-Is it better to open the Roth Ira in a mutual fund directly with the mutual fund company?
-After opening the Roth Ira in a mutual fund, what should I expect? What happens after that? Is it safe?

Thank you

Where is the best place to complain about an undisclosed fee with a mutual fund company?

I thought I was opening a mutual fund account with a large mutual fund company. I already have a Traditional IRA mutual account with them. When I opened the ROTH IRA account online I didn’t realize it was a brokerage account. I’m a saver not an investor. I have 20 years with this company, however they won’t waive the fee for this account. Worst of all it was hidden in the pull down electronic agreement so I didn’t see it. They are playing hard nose and won’t budge, not even for an old client.

Should I get out of Mutual Funds and move toward a safer investment method?

I have invested in a mutual fund company virtually 80 percent of my portfolio. With the market in a flux as it is, should I move out of the funds and into something safer? I have seen 10 percent of my fund melt away in the last year and with the oil crisis am wondering when the bleeding will stop.

Is it wise to invest in different mutual fund companies or just one?

Is it wise to invest in different mutual fund companies or just one company for maximum returns? My reason is that in case Company A fails, I still have a backup with other companies.

What is your opinion on this, will it matter if I invest in different companies? What are the chances that a mutual fund company will actually fail/close?
About diversification: isn’t mutual funds already in itself diversification?

Mutual Fund?

(Q1)
Everybody talks about investing money in Mutual Fund.
suppose, you want to invest some money in Mutual Fund (CLOSE ENDED for 3 years say) (say in HDFC Tax saving Mutual Fund).

How you will be paid your return after 3 years ?

does the Mutual Fund company AUTOMATICALLY sends your profit(if any) by cheque to your home address ?

who pays the return(profit) ? i am confused, how one will get the return(profit) ?

(Q2)
Now suppose,

suppose, you want to invest some money in Mutual Fund (OPEN ENDED i.e you can withdraw money at any time…right ?) .

now, say you want to discontinue after 3 Months.

what you have to do ? i have read …you have to "sell the Mutual Fund" ….but selling to whom ? how do i get the customer to sell?

is it necessary to sell ?

if i dont sell but want to withdraw what will happen ?

very much confused.
——————————————-
can you please clarify my some more doubts ?

which is better mode of investment ?

(1)with dividend or without dividend ?
(2)close ended or open ended ?
————————————–

i have also read a fact , that suppose you invested some mone to a MF fund company. but the MF company ruined and could not survive….thats means, you are not getting any profit…right ? your money is gone….correct ?

well ok….but the most stunning fact and dangerous thing i have read is that you have to sell your furnitures,TVs,Computers and other household things to pay off the MF company . because , they say,…you too have the liability as the company ruins so you also ruin.

is this fact true ?
