My son has become interested in learning about investing in stocks. Is there a minimum age requirement for this?
I'm also interested in this but for my niece and nephew. I'm not interested in a 529 plan, just want to get them the initial $101 and let it sit there for over a decade until they turn 18.

I had an individual brokerage account with Schwab and closed that account. Will I be eligible for this offer if I open now?

1099 Int will be generated and it has to reflect on tax filing.

Currently with sofi holding 100 Tesla stocks but didn't realize sofi doesn't offer L2 investing
As a fellow Tesla stockholder throughout this year, I'd like to offer you my condolences. I've been feeling the pain. 100 shares has to be extra brutal.

I m looking for new platform besides fidelity and Merrill edge. Currently with sofi holding 100 Tesla stocks but didn't realize sofi doesn't offer L2 investing, I want to do some covered calls and collect premiums. I want to transfer over my stocks from sofi to this ...sofi charges $75 fee for that. Is this a good transfer option for what I want to achieve? Essentially erase the transfer fee or there are other better options??
Thanks in advance 🙏
Perhaps You can close your Tesla position, Do a hopefully free ACH money transfer to your bank then open a new brokerage account and maybe get some bonus in the process too. And leave the sofi account empty or close.

I actually transferred my stocks to eTrade...they have $150 bonus offer for transfer from 1k-50k. So it pays for $75 sofi fee plus mm another $75...I get to keep my stocks without selling and re-buying, no worries for tax implications. It was win-win situation, now I m able to open covered call positions, although TSLA is puking now a days, I m in for long haul 🙏

After clicking "Open an account" button the next page says:

It allow to proceed with opening the account but I have doubts the offer will work...

I believe that's how I signed up. Got the ATM/debit card and fees are waived. Got the stock and profited, also.
I just chatted with a Charles Schwabb rep. He told me that the Schwab Starter kit does not come with the high investor checking account. The high investor checking account is paired with another brokerage account, and not the starter kit

I hated it too.

I called in and now I am able to login.

I still can't fund because they have some issues (forgot the exact error message).

Will try again tomorrow to fund money.
