I used to use Robinhood, but I'm transitioning to Webull. I've heard Fidelity and Merrill are pretty good too.
What brokers do you use, and is there any specific reason you use them?
 
Schwab has been pretty hassle-free for my IRA and their checking is alright when you tie it to a brokerage.
 
I use Merrill as it's linked to a BofA account I have and you can move money instantly between the two. The transactions are free so you're not paying broker fees and they have some nice tools you can play around with.
 
Redmayne Bentley, you have to pay a transaction fee but my broker will go and negotiate with the market makers to get me a better price if they don't the offer is good enough, I've been very happy with them so far.
 
Get the fuck out of RH.

They've proven they aren't trust worthy. For my own, I manage a lot of my own shit, but I keep some in an account for others to play with saving myself time, I funny enough still have a free trader log in etc ameritrade account from my internship ages ago lol so I use that a lot, and do my own crypto etc.

But other wise I have a local broker and don't want to risk naming because well it's the farms better safe than sorry.

Why am I posting then? Because even if they manage a little of your money or all, have a relationship with them, know them and understand they get what you want. Big chain places don't really do that well.

This is your money friends value it.

This guy knows what he's talking about
 
I like to keep my stuff separate (though it's all banking, they'll all eat shit at the same time when it happens). I have a TRowePrice 401k through work (doesn't have as many options as I'd like, but eh it works), another with Vanguard, and a basic E-Trade for fucking around with my own money.
 
I plan on shifting the money I am accruing in RH into a real deal account with Vanguard or another broker once it gets to a more substantial balance. I also do not trust Robinhood to have a long lifespan or to handle controversy in a competent manner. Vanguard stands out to me as a good option, but I'm open to suggestions.
 
Fidelity for pretty much everything. I used to use Vanguard for a Roth IRA but their website isn't great and I have employer 401k and HSA at Fidelity already, so I moved it there. I also have an Interactive Brokers account which I opened for some strategies that would take advantage of cheap margin, but I haven't started that yet since the market is acting like an angry toddler whose mom (the Fed) took his toy (cheap money) away. I don't trust toy apps like Robinhood, eToro, WeBull, etc.
 
Charles Schwab. They didn't back down during the Gamestop trading because they manage real amounts of money and they aren't zoomer apps.
