Which site is the best to invest through, I've researched Etrade, Schwab, Sharebuilder, TradeKing etc. TradeKing has the best prices but it says $0.65 per contract? What does that mean. Any help would be great.

HI tombb25
The 65 cents refers only to options contracts. So if you're just going to buy and sell stocks, TradeKing is priced lowest at $4.95 per trade. No hidden fees, no minimums, no account maintenance fees. Actual people answer the phone if you need help, and they have live chat. Plus great rankings (#1 in SmartMoney), #5 with highest ranking of 4 stars on Barron's, and just ranked #3 in Consumer Reports.
Good luck with your investments.
