Where can a person buy stocks ?
Seriously, where can a person buy stock in a company. I invest my money in just a few. I'm not trading every day. Just want to buy the stock and hold onto it for the long term. Seems every broker or company (E-Trade or Scottrade) may very well suck the life from this style of investing like a parasite.
Any suggestions? Or am I wrong about the two I mentioned?
Just a little background... I just closed out an investment account with my local bank after finding a none activity fee of $40 had been charged along with a $12 service fee. They then sold off 4 of my Ford stock to pay for these. All my fault for assuming this long term investment would never be touched, therefore I never looked too much at the monthly statements. Just the bottom line. Had I not even done that, In years the investment would
be gone. (oops)

Banks suck the blood out of all of their customers. I use Scottrade and love it. They do not have any inactivity fees or monthly fees. The cost is $7 a trade which is one of the lowest fee. They do require a $500 deposit to open the account.

I don't know what you are talking about. Scottrade has absolutely no hidden fees, and no inactivity fees. You could literally leave you account sitting for 50 years and no fees would be charged unless you make a trade.
