But when you take, and when they say how many millions they
made you forget how much divided up. And one of the nice
things about America is . . . everybody can buy stock.
There is no law against St, and a lot of the stock, most of
the stocks sells for under fifty dollars a shaxe. Same of
it sells as cheap as - good stack sells as low as ten dollars
a share.
And, of course you have gambling stock. But these big
companies make it possible for you. You take employees
working for a company can pay for it out of their payroll
with no broker's fees, You take just recently the gas and
electric company; if you buy some of their stock through a
broker, from then on you can send so much a month and they'll
buy it for you with no broker's fees. And today, I didn't
look just last night, but this plan's bearing nine percent;
that's more than the banks give you on your money that you
don't need. Nobody should close out their bank account to
buy stock.
