Once you are registered, you can send any amount of money (like $100) and they will be you the amount of shares equal to that (like 2.345 shares). No commissions to pay. Don't have to buy round lots. The other option we have in canada like sharebuilder is canadianshareowners.com. Similar idea. $9 per trade up to a max of $36. After that, no more cost. So you could buy shares from 10 different companies all for just $36 commission. Another way to start investnig cheaply is using DRIP (dividend reinvestment programs).
