If you want my suggestion, stay away. That stuff's dangerous and highly volatile.

There's always the cocaine industry- Pablo Escobar was making $500,000 a day at his height.

I want to get some stocks for Google on their initial IPO, but that is near impossible, unless you have significant connections.  Now that stock, once it goes public, will provide instant riches to those who can get it at the initial IPO price.

My mommy says that she hasn't heard anything bad about etrade and she thinks they all are about the same value wise. Even though she's a stockbroker's assistant she doesn't know too much about online trading being that they're direct competitors and all.

i actually have an account at etrade, but i have herad from a few people that its more expensive than others sites. so i never invested with them. thats why i turned to trusty planetgamecube.com.

No limit,

I would recommend My-track for a US account, they have, hands down, the best real time trading tools on the net IMO.

Now, if you plan on trading for yourself, you must read, read and read, do not jump into this thinking you will will make fast easy money. Guys like myself live off of people who do this, it is a one way ticket to broke ville.

I will take a little time this week and post a message with some good do's and dont's for you, I will try and do it before the weekend.
