I only have about $500 of beginning capital. Should I put this into an IRA (which most brokers do not have a minimum deposit) or into a standard fund? I believe I am eligible for the $2000 tax deduction. My (soon to be) wife does have a 401k plan where she works, but we will not make over $35,000 this year together. My last question concerns brokers. Are there any that will accept a $500 initial deposit? ETrade appears to accept a minimum of $1000, which I may be able to scrape together. Any information would be appreciated. prime@udel.edu >> |
