I'm thinking about buying some AMD stock, but I don't know where to start. Only previous experience is with Bitcoin. What are some good places where I can trade AMD stock?

I don't want to use a broker.

When you say you don't want to use a broker I assume you mean you don't want to pay a broker to make the actual trade?

These days it's standard to give free trades when you create an account.

Buy in units of 100 shares so you can sell the call options. Excluding opportunity costs when your option eventually gets called, in the meantime, it's sort of like free money. You can still lose money of course but at least the odds are skewed in your favor.

AMD doesn't have their own DRIP - dividend reinvestment program so you can't buy directly from them but you can go through someplace like Computershare or AST financial (maybe/probably). They're still going to charge a fee though. Don't know how it compares to a broker.

If you have to ask that question, stay out of the market!

I hate morons with this kind of attitude. You will never learn anything if you don't ask questions and try. Everyone has to start somewhere. Instead of being a jackass, how about helping him and realizing he's at least smart enough to ask questions.

I'm not sure AMD is a horrible buy right now, sitting a little over $26.

But it sure can't be money you might need to live on. It has to be funds you can sit on.
