One of the best places to start looking is www.Vanguard.com
Vanguard has very good performing funds with the individual investor in-mind, meaning the low expense fees.
I highly recommend the Roth IRA unless your gross income is so high that you need to offset it with a traditional IRA for the tax write-off.
As far as the mutual funds, you want the proper balance but the fund's allocations come to ones own investment philosphy. Since we live in a global economy, I invest 50% international 50% domestic.
I hope this helps. Best of luck!

Vanguard, Schwab, T. Rowe Price, Fidelity Brokerage.
===============================================
Having said that..... be very careful of taking advice on this board. Many people have something to gain if they direct you somewhere. Learn "asset allocation" & keep your expenses low.
Follow these two guides and statisically you'll do better than most.
Learn,learn, learn. Do not take "tips" from anyone (including emails, articles, friends or relatives).
Good luck!
