### Comment:
cool. is there any disadvantage to using robin hood starting out? I signed up for that and thinkorswim

### REPLY:
Robinhood is one of the only brokerages that lets you trade stocks and options with no commissions. Saves you $5 to $10 per trade, which can add up if you are a degenerate gambler trading often. 
  
 Downside is horrible customer service, unreliable app, dodgy order execution, no control of tax lots when selling, etc. But that's fine if you are just starting out. Eventually you will want to move to a 'real' broker.
