The headline of this post is a little something I learned from managing ads in Hecht's advertising department: Remind the customer how many days left in an event and use an exclamation point. (I remember being told that anything more than 5 days does not create a sense of urgency. Thanks LR and T.S.!)Anyway, there's only 5 days left to sign up for the Suze Orman/TD Ameritrade Save Yourself program! Suze has a countdown on her website too. See my post earlier this month about the plan. Also, I called TD Ameritrade today and the rep confirmed I can use the account for stock trading as well as savings (and still get the $100 bonus at the end of a year of continuous electronic deposits) as long as I DON'T withdraw the $. Buying a stock through them qualifies the $ spent on that stock as part of my Ameritrade assets.
I'm looking forward to Jim Cramer's visit to Penn State tonight. I'll be there in spirit but watch it on CNBC. Word is the release form folks have to sign to get into the event are pretty extensive. In "Cramerica," no one is allowed to trade during the on-campus show. Sphere: Related Content
