Vanguard 500 Index Fund Investor Class (VFINX :NASDAQ)
Hey guys - just learning the ways and had a question...
Should I buy into VFINX shares directly through Vanguard? Or am I better off buying them from my current stock broker situation?
I currently have an IB account and pay only $1 per trade.
What's the pro's or con's of buying them myself? Any advantages to buying them through Vanguard?
I did call Vanguard myself and asked the question and the guy's only response was that it's lower cost then the typical stock brokerage. Which is probably very true, but at a dollar per trade that may not be true for me.
Opinions? Thanks!
