my personal opinion is that google is dipping into the right cookie jars. i believe their commitment to ‘information technology’ surpasses any other organization in existence. maybe i’m wrong but i don’t think they are a one-hit wonder; basically cause everytime i turn around they have something sweet for me to ooh and aah over.

as for online brokerage… for your real basic buy and sells just find out who has the cheapest rates going. right now i’d say scottrade.com is looking great ($7)

And I knew you were right. Just being so unfamiliar with the whole thing, but I need to jump in and get my feet wet.

I have been looking to sign up with one of the online trading houses. Do you recommend one. I have been trying to research them, really about all the fees. Still much I don’t understand.

Also, do you thing that the stock is topped out? I mean, are there many stocks on the market worth over $200 bucks? I don’t recall ever seeing any.

I guess that means it will eventually split and you would have double at half value. So after a stock splits, is it likely to climb again?

With a new job, house, bills and bills…there was no way possible. But you never know what the future holds…maybe I’ll be buying in soon.

Later,
Benny
