"Hello everyone this is Chris Markowski, President of Markowski Investment, and host of nationally syndicated Watchdog on Wall Street radio show. Here to tell you how to buy and sell stocks. And what's that clich?, I guess very carefully. Who knows, okay listen. If you must go out there and you feel that you have the brains and the capacity to put your own portfolio together, and buy and sell your own securities. Well there's many different ways you can go about doing it. First and foremost you can open up an online account, you can get a stock broker that's going to go ahead and do that for you. Or if you're a long term investor, which you should be. You can actually get some of these dividend reinvestment plans where you're not going to pay any transaction fee whatsoever. I caution though people, I really do. If all these discount houses out there that are trying to convince you to buy and sell as much as possible, because they're going to give you a free toaster or something like that. If their clients were actually making money, don't you think they'd know about it. I mean I know Sam Waterson was on Law and Order and everything like that, but do you honestly think that those people that look so rich and cool, and have got the sub zero refrigerators there in the commercials. They're actors. It's not reality. Be careful, no matter what you're doing when it comes to buying and selling securities. This is Chris Markowski, your watch do on Wall Street."
