It depends on how knownledgable you are with investments. Some people do it themselves and others go to a Charles Schwab type brokerage house.

Charles Schwab does have a conservative managed portfolio they will manage for you for a small percentage, (I think it's .05% of total portfolio value). It a a widely deversified fund.

Whatever you decide to invest in, "make sure you understand the vehicle and how it works so you can sleep at night".
