Okay, I love the tax advantages of a Roth Individual Retirement Account, but I hate being told what I can and can’t invest MY money in. I could put it in a freakin’ triangular hole in the ground, if I felt like it. But anyway, I’m looking for a Roth IRA that will allow me to invest in:
1. Lending to people via Prosper.com
2. The deeds to rental properties that pay for themselves and pay into the account
3. Tax liens and/or tax lien certificates
4. Stocks
I want to invest in _all_ of those things. I DO NOT want to invest in annuities, cds, or mutual funds. Those pathetic investments are dead to me.
Does anyone know where to look for my desired IRA?

Generally, Roths all play by the same rules, good luck with that portfolio.
The answer is NO. You can not have total freedom. The Roth IRA must be established with a custodian. This can be a stock broker. You can then buy whatever that stock broker has to sell you.
