A friend recently nudged me to investigate a company that I was interested in...from an investment point of view. I found out that I didn't have to go through a broker. I found that some companies have a system whether directly through the company or through an investment program to purchase a small amount of stock (to get started) with an optional purchase monthly.
I paid the minimum (350.00 gulp) for a stock that was down...and I had heard from the news some good things coming. Now, automatically every month I add an extra 50.00 to the fund.
It costs me very little in fees and already after just 3 months I've made money...15%.
Does anyone else use this kind of investment plan? I find it satisfying since I'm not tying up huge amounts of money and for the long run, I think its a great way to put away 50.00 per month.
