6/27    What are your favorite metal trading platform? Is Kitco any good?
        I heard that Kitco doesn't report to IRS whereas Etrade
        automatically sends info to IRS. I'm wondering what I should use.
        \_ I trade tapes on Ebay.
        \_ I buy the physical stuff from a dealer in Chinatown who does not
           even take my name, just my money.

4/19    I'm thinking of getting Roth IRA. Which company is good/pleasant to
        use? Etrade? Fidelity? Scottrade?
        \_ Buy Silver.  Gold is already overvalued.  We're going to hit
           hyperinflation the likes of which even God has never seen before.
        \_ Local credit union.
        \_ I recommend charlesSchwab

11/21   E*Trade survival depends on TARP funding.  Larger brokerages reluctant
        to acquire company because of its MBS/CDO liabilities (would rather
        acquire brokerage side only via bankruptcy).

        \_ If my online tradng account is with ETrade, how will this
           affect me?  Should I transfer ASAP?  Any recommendations?

10/24   Week trade guy, what brokerage do you use? I'm curious about how
        you are trading indexes.
        \_ I'm using Etrade. It's very expensive, at $10 a trade. But
           since my volume is super low, it's not a big deal. Also I
           have Etrade bank at 3.3% interest rate and that's where my
           paycheck goes. I only trade 2 things right now: DIA and QQQQ.
	...

8/26    I just place limit buy on Etrade for X amount worth of $$$ but I
        don't actually have X amount in the trading account. What would
        happen if the order actually executes? Do I owe Etrade a steep %
        of interest or it gets taken out magically from my savings/checking
        accounts?
        \_ The buy probably doesn't execute, unless you have a margin account
	...

2/6     I want to open up a money market account, and I'm debating between
        an ING Direct acct and a ETrade one. Which one is preferable?
        Should I just go with the ETrade acct since it offers 4.4%
        interest (vs. the 3.4% offered by ING)? Thanks.
        \_ Are you worried about ETrade going belly up?
        \_ Go for Etrade, and when their rate tanks switch to another service.
	...

11/12   So do I need to worry about the money in my E*Trade account?
        \_ What's wrong with ETrade?
           \_ Fall down, go boom.
              http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=etfc
        \_ If your money in your E*Trade account is on E*Trade stocks or
           E*Trade mutual funds, yes.  Otherwise, probably no.
	...

10/12   Oh crap Etrade's savings account teaser interest rate went from
        5.05% to 4.70% in less than 1.5 month. Who else has a higher
        savings/mm interest rate?
	...

9/19    Wtf is Etrade charging me $40 for not trading, and can I move my
        holdings out of their grimy, usurious hands?
        \_ I transfered all my holdings from Etrade to Ameritrade several
           years ago b/c it just didn't like dealing w/ them.  There is
           a transfer in kind form that you will need to fill out. Usually
           the new brokerage will be able to give you the necessary info.
	...

4/1     Got this email from Etrade saying that based on my Etrade banking
        activities I'm now qualified as a special trader and can trade
        stocks for a very low price. "To continue your exclusive status
         beyond next quarter, just maintain a $50,000 combined balance in
         linked E*TRADE Securities and E*TRADE Bank accounts or execute 30
         or more stock or options trades by the end of the quarter."
