DW, The article is "My income portfolio quarterly update (q1 2014) by Invest yourself.
If I was tech savy I would attach.
I reread and he does use sharebuilder (for a small buy fee).
Excoriated is a perfect word.
I buy in smaller lots also as I dont have a large "fund" to pull cash from (California Bay Area is expensive to live in).
Back in 95 I bought a small lot of GE and am sitting on a nice chunk now. AAPL I bought in small lots ( for myself and each of my kids college fund) and have done well there also.
My problem with the "abuse" Invest yourself got was simply, not all of us can buy 1000 shares of each company and for those (like myself) who are TRYING to help ourselves good for us and dont want to see the small investor lose hope in their quest. Buy small if thats all you can afford, solid companies and DRIP it and watch it grow.
