Fidelity for one will combine account totals to give you waved fees. I like to invest in low turnover mutual funds or index funds for a taxable account.

Glad it helped. I know I can be a bit hard to follow sometimes, so it's good to know it made sense to someone. Thanks, Meghan. Glad it helped.

It seems so intriguing, but you're right that it's important to max out your 401(k) and IRA before diving into these. So yes, I am waiting to reach a couple of milestones before diving into this--mainly maxing out the above and then paying off student loans. I'm only 20, but I'm aiming to learn as much as possible early on so I can make the best decisions from the start. Thanks for this post and helping me do that!

All I do is buy, and occasionally rebalance my asset allocation. Works well for me. Great way to build wealth.
