What kind of limited funds are we talking about here? Sharebuilder will cost $ 10 for a realtime trade. Or $ 4 if you do the automatic stuff.

I would venture to say that if you don't have the $ 10 to place a trade, you shouldn't be investing. Just my opinion.

Buy some stocks with dividends. there are some good ones out there. With low funds, I would recomened this one: KCAP. The stock price is still low right now around 5.50 with a dividend payout of $ .24...which is kind of unheard of. And according to this release from them, if you buy it before October 9th, you can get the dividend at the end of the month http://www.globenewswire.com/newsroom/news.html?d=173951. Dump it right after you get the dividend or keep it in hopes they pay out that kind of dividened again.

These stocks were built by a John Linnaker in 1741.
The last person to be put in them was a Thomas Rimmer, in 1861......sentenced to six hours, for drunkeness.
These are double-stocks...so that, if neccessary, two miscreants could be punished at one time.
The steel railings are a relatively recent addition to protect the stocks.
