You might be able to earn a bonus by opening a second ShareBuilder account under your existing ID, though. That has worked in the past. The company did stop some people from earning multiple bonuses while others didn't run into any problems.It looks as if current account holders can qualify for this bonus as well, just by opening up a separate account linked to your original account information. But don't hold me responsible if they don't award you the bonus, if they retract the bonus, or if they freeze your new ShareBuilder account. They advertise that this bonus is for new accounts only, so I would stick to that to be on the safe side. Ryan: Your wife should create her own account for the safest way of earning the bonus.

The income occurs when the bonus is deposited into your ShareBuilder account, not when you withdraw it into your funding source.

I know if there are any, then they'll be minor but it's nice to know. I was under the impression that taxes only come to play when you sell your stocks but I'm unsure......

I've been thinking about signing up, but essentially being able to start investing for "free" sounds great. I wonder what I should invest that $21 in! Thanks!
