<prompt> Human: I wanted to buy a couple shares of Disney stock and also do a recurring buy every time I got paid. I just wanted to start with them and maybe pick up a couple different varieties down the road once the wedding is behind us. Should I go through DisneyBroadridge or a different trading platform, one that has recurring investments? TIAEDIT: It was more for a fun investment for my fiance to say she has one, I think I will stick with the recurring into the Vanguard 500 index; I am in it for the long haul regardless.  <response>: If you go the individual stock route, dont buy a little here and there. You will lose a lot to trade commissions. Save up and buy in blocks of a few thousand dollars.
