Getting closer to trading with Zecco!

Well, I’m getting closer and closer now to being ready to give Zecco a try. For those of you who haven’t heard of Zecco, they offer free trades when you keep a minimum of $2,500 with them; either invested or in the cash sweep. Free trades are just sooo tempting, so I have been planning to give them a try for quite a while.

Before I started this blog, my wife and I had a discussion about me signing up to Zecco to purchase some shares. She was not really excited with the idea of me making, what she deams as, risky investments. However, the trooper that she is, she came to terms with it and I have been slowly building up some side money to make it happen. I have just finished creating the Zecco account, so I’ll be all set to fund it.

Let’s split the bonus
If you would like to open a Zecco account of your own and get a little bonus at the same time, feel free to contact me or sign up using my personal referral link. They have a “refer-a-friend” program that pays the referer $50 and I would gladly split the referral bonus with anyone interested. Please keep in mind though that the referral bonus is only paid if the referee funds their account.

The small print:
If you are a Zecco Trading account holder, the $50 cash reward will be credited to your trading account in the first seven business days of the next calendar month after your friend opens and funds a Zecco Trading account. (This offer is not applicable to IRA accounts.) If you are not a Zecco Trading account holder, a $50 Amazon gift certificate will be sent to you in 2-4 weeks instead.

Do you already have a Zecco trading account? Are you happy with the service?

I have had a Zecco account for over a year and have been very happy with the service. Here is a link to my last review. http://divguy.blogspot.com/2008/04/zecco-trading-free-brokerage-account-1.html

Stocks are a great way to build wealth and keep ahead of inflation. Show your wife the long term returns of stocks. Also if you want to be conservative, start with companies like JNJ, PEP, PG or GE.

Best of luck!

Thanks for the info. You have a great blog. I will have to add it to my list of regular reads. I need to update my goal for Zecco as well. I funded my trading account and bought RCH today at $7.60/share
