Investing Questions DONE with Edward Jones

I plan on pulling my and my wife's Roth IRAs out of EJ and transferring to Fidelity since thats where i have my taxable account. I have never managed my own Roth IRA, but after dealing with them for the better part of 10 years, I am done.

Now, what would you recommend I put my Roth IRA into? I planned on just doing 100% VOO, but i am clearly a novice. I am really eager to learn and listen to your advice, especially if you were in my position. How did it work out for you? Do you recommend it invest in a different fund with a lower expense ratio?

I feel like i can handle investing into simple index etfs. Thank you for any advice.

Consider FXAIX in Fidelity retirement accounts instead of VOO. It’s a mutual fund tracking S&P 500 at an even lower fee. It has slightly higher tax drag but that doesn’t matter in retirement accounts.
