I think it is attractive here but even though I am wrong in my thinking, sometimes I have a hard time adding to positions when my cost basis is significantly lower then current price. Last div increase in Oct 12 was a little light (6%). Hopefully its better this Oct.<br /><br />cheers,<br />AAAccumulating Assetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17775500122960073181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098231416804954636.post-51480394188771760682013-08-30T17:09:26.997-07:002013-08-30T17:09:26.997-07:00DGI, thanks for stopping by.

I can say those the weekly purchases really do add up over some time. I also have accounts with Etrade, TradeKing, and Fidelity.<br /><br />There is no obligation with the Sharebuilder service and I can discontinue the plan with a click of the button.<br /><br />cheers,<br />AAAccumulating Assetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17775500122960073181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098231416804954636.post-11645979783808776382013-08-30T17:01:43.202-07:002013-08-30T17:01:43.202-07:00Martin, thanks man!

It is very nice to hear that Sharebuilder has this $12 monthly deal for 12 buying trades.<br /><br />It might be ideal for someone just starting out, or for someone who wants to allocate as many companies as possible in their Roth/Regular IRA, while minimizing investment costs.<br /><br />By the way, how easily can you cancel the monthly subscription?Dividend Growth Investorhttp://www.dividendgrowthinvestor.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098231416804954636.post-32325874395836111062013-08-23T14:40:50.541-07:002013-08-23T14:40:50.541-07:00Nice growth man!

These are contributions through a plan with Sharebuilder.com where I get 12 orders each month for $12. The cavaet is that the purchases go through on Tuesdays of every month. Before each Tuesday, I decide how much I will invest and in which companies. <br /><br />I have been using this Sharebuilder service for almost 3 years and have been happy with the service and strategy.<br /><br />cheers,<br />AAAccumulating Assetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17775500122960073181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098231416804954636.post-85801381008442896262013-08-21T19:20:54.554-07:002013-08-21T19:20:54.554-07:00Woops, it was in the title.
