Don’t Cry For Me – Commission Free Brokers

I took the afternoon off with Max to play the aweomse Scottsdale National Golf Club.

For the first time in a long time we saw a few rattlesnakes sunning themselves on the course.

Of course, Max made me take the pictures. He says ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ wrecked snakes for him.

Speaking of wrecked, last week Fidelity joined the ‘free trades’ zone and now everyone thinks the good times are over for discount brokerages.

They might be.

Dave Nadig at ETF.com does a good job of explaining how the brokers will make money now that trading is free.

PS – Speaking of free…You can now buy a $1 deodorant stick using Amazon Prime and have it delivered the next day. We are getting close to ‘Peak Amazon Rome’ a moment I discussed when Prime started where I would be able to order ‘one grape’ a day using my Prime account.
