The BlogShares Blog

We are excited to announce a new opportunity for BlogShares players to invest in real stocks through ShareBuilder. We are launching the BlogShares Investment Club, a forum for players who have joined ShareBuilder to discuss their investments and progress.

Here's the scoop: ShareBuilder allows you to invest small amounts of money, whether as a one-time deal, or through automatic deposits. You set up an account and determine how you would like your money invested. ShareBuilder does the rest. If you want to buy into Microsoft or Google, you can do it with only a few dollars and a couple of clicks. If you can't afford a whole share of stock, ShareBuilder has the answer. You will buy only what you can afford, which often means purchasing fractions of a share. You reap all the benefits of stock ownership without the high-level capital needed with other brokers. The basic membership is free to join, with 2 other membership levels available.

BlogShares Investment Club: To join the BSIC, all you need to do is sign up for any ShareBuilder plan by first clicking on the ad to the left, and then following the instructions on the ShareBuilder site. Once your signup has been confirmed, you will receive 30 days of BlogShares Premium Membership, , and 1000 chips, all FREE for signing up. You'll also be given access to a private board in the BlogShares forum, reserved solely for players who have chosen to take advantage of the ShareBuilder program. Here, you can discuss your investment thoughts, exchange ideas and tips, and enjoy a community of BlogShares players who are taking part in this valuable opportunity.
