I've been a teacher in TX for three years now and have been saving for retirement since I started my teaching job. However, I have no idea of what I'm doing. I have been living in the U.S. for very little and have no one trustworthy to give me financial advise, since all my family and friends live in Mexico. I was advised by some coworkers to open a 403(b) retirement plan since the retirement plan given to us is apparently not sufficient. I was lured by an insurance company to open one with them. I have done some digging and I found that this company doesn't have good reviews because of the shady fees they charge--my bad for not looking into it before. I'm trying to understand any of this but finances were never my thing and just want the best option. Please, help.
