Ooo, maybe I will buy some more stocks after all
This little announcement from Zecco appeared in my email a couple of days ago: “October will be a 100% unlimited free trading month for current Zecco Trading customers”.
“Ooo,” I thought, “maybe I will buy some more stocks after all.”
Yes, I’m waffling some more. You see I have this long list of stocks that interest me. They’re all researched and everything, and the prices on them (along with most stocks, it seems) just keep going down. So I’ve been holding off on buying, even though I want them, because of:
1. Market uncertainty
2. Debating about putting money in a “safer” investment instead
3. Wondering if I’m stupid for considering this and for continuing to dump money into my 401(k). But, maybe I’m not. 5-10 years will tell.
4. Fees, fees, and more fees!
Did I mention I have a long list of stocks in mind? I can’t afford tons of shares of each of them, which would reduce the average fees. But with that announcement, I could get most (or maybe all) of the list, which would put me a lot closer to having free monthly trades with Zecco.com anyway. Well, I have a little more than a whole month to decide.
