I ran into this rare promotion not too long ago and I thought I would share it with everyone. I don’t know how long Sharebuilder and ING Direct will be offering this opportunity. If you’re into investing, you might as well get some free investing credits at Sharebuilder while they last. You can earn a $25.00 sign up bonus in free investing credits.
Trading with Sharebuilder costs $9.95 for every trade. One bad thing about Sharebuilder is there trades aren’t exactly very fast. In my experience, I’ve submitted an order online and to buy some shares of a stock and about 3 hours later they will finally buy it for me.
Do you know how much the price of a stock can fluctuate in 3 hours?
That’s right, a whole hell of a lot. I have the same trouble with selling shares. I purchase my selling trade, then hours later Sharebuilder will finally sell off my shares, or even worse, wait until the next trading day to sell them off. This bothers me, but if you’re into long term investing, it shouldn’t be a problem for you.
So you know what you get, about 3 free trades.
What do I get?
Not much, just 2 real time trades (not really real time) and 5 automatic investments (which I don’t ever use). I can only get credit for these things a number of 5 times. That’s it.
So I’m writing this post in benefit of you more than me. If you would like to be invited, let me know by sending an e-mail to me with your name and e-mail address. I will send you an invitation. Otherwise, just join with the first link in this post to be taken to Sharebuilder’s main site.
Take a look at some more investing sign up bonus sites and let me know what you think.
