IT, about seven years ago I sold a stock through Etrade where the proceeds were less than the commission. They just made the commission equal what the proceeds were. Proceeds were like $6 and some change and at that time their commissions were around $20 or so.
Now that I think about it, that loss was similar to the one we are in now. Back then I had $1000 turn into $6. This was ELAST which turned out to be some snake oil type medical device they were selling. Seems like I would have learned my lesson back then. Guess I'll just never learn.
