1. I use both Stash and Robbinhood but to be fair, I invest about $200.00 per Month into each app. However, Robbinhood does allow you to put all of your investment into a single stock whereas Stash spreads your investments over a group of pre selected stocks. I would not call that a scam. You just have less control over how your money gets invested with Stash.
2. so stash is for the lest advanced guy.
   
   im thinking going for both and see what happens after ayer.
   
   what would you recommend?
3. It depends on your perspective. As a new investor with not a lot of money, Stash is great. It allows me to invest in many different stocks and get my feet wet. It's a great way to learn without going broke on the learning curve. Rather than save up to buy 1 share of something, I can buy fractional shares and watch many different stocks at once. Robinhood is a great app. It's not better, just different. Comparing Stash to Acorns is comparing apples to apples, Comparing Stash to Robinhood is comparing Apples to Oranges. I see your point on the $1/mon depending on how much you're earning, but there is no finance class or real world stock experience that provides that much diversity for $1. They each have their merits.
4. Thanks Folio. Another great video. We are swing traders. Stash has no place here. Stash is for the under investor. Stash maybe for long term and for some one who knows absolutely nothing about investing.. We are swing traders .... We are more advanced than stash
5. Robinhood is better. The only thing Stash has going is that you can buy fractions of shares but the truth is you can make more using Robinhood.
