Give me your stock tips!
 

OK I am looking at doing some small time trading online at one of these online trading websites, so I have a couple questions.

1. Which site do you think is the best for online trading and has the most features for research and for actual trading. I dont want to spend $30 a trade, one of these $7-10 a trade sites is what I am looking for. I also dont want to have to dump $2k into the acct just to see what they got going on, I think E-Trade is the only one that requires 2k.

2. What stocks are you guys holding right now that is making you some money? I usually go with long term stocks like Ford, GE and the like, what do you guys have in your portfolio?

I know you guys spend those porn dollars somewhere ;)

pay .001 cent per share when trade at

http://interactivebrokers.com

write nekkid options, trade around the world, futures, etc, etc..
and they are VERY cheap for what they provide

my husband who has a little account to play at day trading is at wallstreete.com

but the bulk of what we do is in indexed mutual funds. every few years, we take some of the profits and diversify to something else.

but the main 3 are with Alliance Capital, AXA, and Goldman Sachs.

also depends if you want long term growth or are in for short term big bang bucks. and how much you can afford to lose.

Wall street is really the worlds largest casino.

A trader i worked with once told me, when and if i ever got into the exchange, only buy what i love, so when we look for funds, we try to find out what they've invested in before buying in.

if you are looking for really 'safe' AND "long term" an annuity, in my opinion, is a good way to go. 10, 20 or 30 yrs depending on how old you are and where you want to be when you get old.

LMAO.. it's really all a "Crap shoot".

I'm only 30, but my retirement was pretty much wiped out with the worldcom fiasco, and I took the rest of my savings from when I worked there and what I had left to live on for the last couple years. I am finally getting more squared away financially and now I need to start a retirement plan for myself so I am looking at Roth IRA's as well as some long term stock investments.

The buy what you love stuff is a good idea.
