I posted this in the campfire and someone recommended I move it down here….. didn’t know this sub forum was here lol….


Is going through a brokerage firm like Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, etc. the way to go? I’m talking about maybe 2-3k to start and 500 a month after that?

Other than an annuity fund through work, a pension, a few different life insurance policies and real estate, I don’t know chit about stock market type investing….. I’m looking for easy but not something with a bunch of hidden fees….. I don’t mind paying a guy up front for his knowledge but don’t want to get swindled. Thx.
