That last thing you need at the present time is a brokerage firm whether for on-line services or in-house services

For you to start to invest on-line would be a gigantic mistake on your part, since you have no idea what you are doing.

Why are you worrying about low fees, when you don't understand the very basics of investing. You only have a minimual amount of capital so you are not in a very good bargining position for special discounts.

Before you invest in any security, the first investment you should make is in yourself, and the best investment you can make is by educating yourself.

Start your education by learning why you should invest and the importance of being able to make your own decisions or how the pro’s make theirs.
