What's the minimum amount of money that you can invest in most commodities accounts?

You can open an account with a deposit of $3,000.00. A commodity spread might only need $200 as margin. You can take the rest out.

Commissions are pretty low unless your broker is trying to rip you off. There are mutual fund accounts that include commodities and stocks.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
