Another question:
Could I open a checking account at Etrade but do all my mutual funding and such at Fidelity?

Yup.
I just don't see the point of opening a saving account with the interest on the checking being higher.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

Other than that the savings has no minimum amount required for the interest rate. But 5k isn't that hard to put in a checking let alone a savings.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect.

Both Fidelity and Chuck are good. Ameritrade and Etrade are not safe during financial distress.
Scottrade has very cheap commission, but it fleeces you through market making.Comment

Well, I don't think many people with less than 5k would really be setting up savings accounts.Originally posted by snoopy369

Unsafe?
Ameritrade and eTrade do not have the financial reserves of Fidelity or Schwab. If they hit a rough patch, they may go under or get bought out. This might interrupt access to your funds, but FDIC and SIPC insurance would prevent you from losing your funds (unless you have over $100,000 in any FDIC account or $100,000,000 in any SIPC account).Originally posted by DaShi
How do Ameritrade and Etrade become unsafe?“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”
