*First Trade*

In my post titled Everything, I mentioned that my great uncle visited us and asked for help setting up his laptop. Well aside from getting an e-mail address to stay in touch, as well as to see if any of his long-lost friends were on facebook, myspace, or classmates.com, lol, he wanted to join the "world wide web" for reasons such as online trading. I personally have no experience with this, but my great uncle has a friend who has done quite well stock trading online. (This friend also walked into a casino and won $16,000 - geesh, I wish I had that kind of luck!)

I wonder if they know about First Trade.com. It is an online brokerage firm that allows customers to trade Stocks, Options, Mutual Funds, ETFs and Fixed Incomes at competitive costs. I checked out their prices for an online broker and it is cheaper than others in the online brokerage industry.

I'm going to send my great uncle my blog address so he can check it out. . .if he hasn't already!
