Mostly talking about life insurance and Roth IRA, I’ve looked up about investments and decided they are just not worth it...

For life insurance you should use a life insurance broker. They will compare your information for a few dozen companies and find the best deal for you.
For Roth IRA I use the TSP because it's almost completely no fee, plus you can borrow the money from yourself if you ever need without actually withdrawing it

As reserve our contribution to TSP is basically non existent and I’m not doing 20 so have to look elsewhere for IRA, but from what I see USAA doesn’t have good rating in anything...

I've been using USAA for almost 20 years and have never ran into any issues. A colleague of mine lost everything in hurricane Katrina and USAA sent him a check within 72 hours and that was one of the biggest reasons I decided to move everything under USAA. Great customer service and I was able to bundle everything and get the best rates I've been able to find.

Wow so your colleague had homeowner insurance with them? Have you tried their investments?

SPC (Join to see) - Yes. I currently have mutual funds and an IRA through them. No issues to mention.
