I'm looking at scottstrade, seems the cheapest. Anything else?
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Stocks are too risky. Look into Vanguard...low expense-ratio mutual funds.

Hey there Spes,
I too recently started looking around on how to invest. I want to start with a little money and just test the market. I am 20 years old and have time to recover.
the on that has caught my eye is.

Sharebuilder is good in that you don't need have to have an account minimum and they don't charge fees if you don't have a minimum. They're good if your justwanting to invest a fixed amount on a periodic basis, and they only charge $4 for that. But if you want to do more active trading they charge $9.95 so it's not that cheap.
which broker is best I guess depends on what you want to do. I don't think it's a good time to invest in stocks. You won't be making money anytime soon.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
I think they work the same way as buying stocks so which ever's best for stocks should be best for ETFs as well. We just need some people to list the fees and their experience with online brokers.speakeasy said:What's the best place for ETFs?
That reminds me, Sharebuilder doesn't broker for very many mutual funds if any but their select few. Also they charge 4.95 to instantly transfer money out of your personal bank account to buy a real-time trade, so it's $9.95+$4.95=$14.95 for a trade, not $4. You can transfer money free into or out of your account but it takes till the next day.

LOL @ this dipsh#t.TheMoonMonst3r said:Stocks are too risky. Look into Vanguard...low expense-ratio mutual funds.
He did not ask for your expert stock advice, he asked about brokers. I am a professional trader (futures), but I do use scottrade for long term investments. You can purchase mutual funds there if you want (like vanguard).
Oh, and listen, risk is all relative. Mutual funds suitability is relative to each person. If you enjoy underperforming the indexes year after year, choose mutual funds, LOL.
