Like most Associated Content Producers, I'm not especially wealthy, nor do I have money burning a hole in my pocket. If you have either of these "problems", then this article won't mean much to you.
But like many AC producers, I take good care of my money and have a little bit in savings. I like the idea of putting my savings into the stock market
and earning a high rate of return.
Sadly, stock brokers charge per trade. E-trade, for instance, will charge me $12.99 to make a stock purchase and another $12.99 to sell. That means if I invest $300 and earn 8% the first year, I still am in the hole because I had to pay $26 in fees. And this is from an online discount broker!
Now for big time investors, this isn't a problem. If I buy a thousand of dollars of a stock, $26 in fees won't have much of an impact on my overall return. But I'm an Associated Content Producer, so that won't work for me.
So I've gone on a search for any way I can possibly circumvent the fees. For investors at our level, it is the best way to maximize our returns. For us, why research a high returning stock if you aren't researching a low fee way to buy and sell the stock?
I've found two web sites that are head and shoulders above the rest, and I'm happy to share them with you.
