Help with how to invest in stocks?

Question

I really want to start investing in stocks. I already have a 401k but I want to start buying individual stocks on my own as well. I don't care paying a one time fee but I don't want to keep having to pay a inactivity fee. Any help on where to start would be greatly appreciated. I am 31 years old and want to try and not work a day past 60 if I can help it.

If you wish to invest for retirement, I would recommend opening a Roth IRA account at a brokerage firm.  This way, you will not have to worry about taxes eating away your investments.  I currently use Firstrade ( http://www.firstrade.com/ ) and they offer no-fee IRA accounts.  You don't even have to worry about paying for a one time fee.  There's no setup, maintenance, inactivity, or termination fees.  Commission rates are also low compared to big name brokers such as Etrade, Scottrade, Ameritrade, and Schwab.  I've been using Firstrade for years now and I have been very satisified with them.  Their website is very easy to use and beginner friendly.  I would definitely suggest that you check them out.

I would not recommend using Zecco.  They offer 10 free trades a month, but that requires at least $2,500 in your account.  Remember, you get what you pay for.  They have been rated for worst research and worst customer service by SmartMoney.  Their website is also very complicated and hard to use.

Regardless of where you choose to open an account, before you jump in and start investing, you should really do your homework.  There are many great investing books and online tutorials out there.  My personal favorite web resource is Investopedia ( http://www.investopedia.com/ ).  You can learn a lot from that website.

Firstrade currently has a refer-a-friend program, so if you do turn out to be interested in opening account with them, email me for a referral code. It's a win-win situation because you'll get your first 5 trades free.

Answer 6

i started with zecco.....still use it, still very happy. only ones with no fee for stock trades, and no minumums.  it took me some time to see that most of my gains were lost to the fees i paid to actually buy stock and sell it....all the others will charge you fees for trading, but compare and see for yourself!
