King makes more than a few important points as do others. Use your head and put many eggs into many different baskets and you will have a better retirement. Our 401K has the lowest costs of any plan I have looked at. If you like to gamble and have the time to devote to doing the due diligence needing to intelligently investing on your own by all means convert into a self managed account. I caution you, and honestly as a brother, I recommend you only use "discretionary" funds for anything that's "self managed." You are up against many, many, many people that do it for a living and some of them are very smart and well financed!
One last parting thought is this; outside of yield, involvement in the stock market boils down to this......you are buying something now, that you think someone, at a later date, will pay you more for than what you paid for it.
