I also use Scottrade - they are just a few miles from my house and it's great to talk to someone who knows you if you have a problem.

500 locations in the U.S.

Scottrade is now owned by TD Ameritrade. I think I heard on CNBC that they'll be fully integrating Scottrade over the first half of 2018. Hopefully they'll keep the former Scottrade locations open for the people who have been using them. I assume this move will link Scottrade clients to ThinkorSwim (very good platform for more active traders). Plus, the customer service at TD Ameritade is good (I assume it's the same at Scottrade).

If he's just talking about "playing", then Robinhood is probably good (and cheap) enough. He could get free research from a variety of sources and trade timing probably won't be a big deal for him. If he gets serious, I'd recommend Interactive Brokers.
