Just finished all 17 pages. Thanks again fellas...just a few questions from someone who wants to begin investing and finally put a little money in stocks:
1. Sharebuilder is now Capitalone Investing, right? Is there any major difference now? What about Capitalone vs ScottTrade vs E-Trade etc. (esp re: fees)? I already have a Cap1 cc/and 360 accounts so Im thinking this might be the easiest way for me to get a brokerage account quickly.
2. Im gonna start out with about 1500 purely dedicated for stocks and also want to buy some bitcoins via Coinbase just to hold onto to see if the value increases over time. I want to invest in maybe 5 or 6 compnies (GBTC, Ford, Statoil, Lenovo, Skullcandy) and just let nature take its course over time. Is that a dumb move or should I expect to make a bunch of moves in a short period of time?
Sorry for the elementary questions, I can already imagine what I must sound like since some of yall are seasoned vets with this. Any feedback is appreciated.
