iReport —

While so much of our dollar feels as if it is no longer under control, we are taking advantage of investing in what I deem to be "low risk" "high potential" stock that is currently trading for pennies on the dollar. These are companies that the government found worthy of bail out, or did not require bail out, and therefore are here for the long haul. I found FirstTrade to be a good tool to have us up and trading with a very minimal cash requirement and $6.95 trades. With less than a $50 investment, we now hold 100 shares of the now government-held Fannie Mae trading at .41 a share. The housing market can only come up from here. Ford stock can be purchased for less than $2 share and they didn't ask for bail-out funds at all, proving their resilience. The deals are there and for a very minimal investment, you can buy into it.
