I've got MF's through retirement accounts, and I know there are some companies that will sell their stocks directly to consumers, but is there any way, preferably online, where I can buy and sell stocks directly without incurring fees and whatnot?


Wouldn't you have to become a member of a stock exchange to do that?

My guess is the commissions you pay a broker will be less.

InteractiveBrokers is a good discount broker. I think its $1 a trade.

These liberals actually think they know what is best for you and me. Here spidey thinks one has to actually become a member of a stock exchange to buy stock directly from the issuer.

There should be some kind of test to vote on tax and revenue issues.

Tuba, you crazy liberal, I like you now. I had never heard of them. You literally just saved me hundreds of dollars.
