Ok, so let me get this straight.

You wish to buy stocks and finance that with a credit card which you then must pay an interest rate of about 20% on.

So, unless your stocks are going to be generating a ROI of greater than 20%, you will be losing money.

Let’s assume you misspoke. Contact a local stock broke to set you up.

There are several online brokerages that will bill you thru a credit card.

Who have you tried? The non-US citizen could be a block.

www.tdameritrade.com

www.schwab.com

may be a couple choices. You may wish to speak directly to a stock broker on the phone as to what you want to do.

Next most US stocks can be bought though local brokers in other nations, one does not have to use a broker from this nation. In my investments I have a few foriegn investments but bought them though the brokerage here in the US

Perhaps you can use your credit card to fund your Paypal account and then use your Paypal account to fund a trading account?

Are you trying to set a new record for the lowest % return ever or are you trying to setup a scam?
