Thoughts on Sharebuilder at ING?

February 28th, 2012 at 07:27 pm

So I am interested in investing, although I know nothing about how, when, what, etc. I have heard people talk about Sharebuilder at ING. Anyone have an opinion on it or know how it works? I have a 401K, but of course I don't do many changes to it. I am also looking for minimum investment. The floor is open people.....give me your thoughts!

    The only thing I have to say about Sharebuilder is that while a $4/trade is cheap, fees are fees - if an acceptable fee level is 1% (as in your 401K), you'll want to make sure that you are buying $400 worth of stock per trade.

    Well ... I have an account with Sharebuilder. I opened it through MyPoints where I got points for it and a $50 opening bonus. I've only made two or three purchases, and probably won't make any more (have more than I'm comfortable with tied up with this one stock ..) But they are pretty easy to deal with, and the CS is the same as ING, so I'd imagine they have good CS (though I haven't dealt with them.) Oh, you can earn free trades for setting up automatic investing, so that can offset the $4/trade fee.
