Broker Survey and Weekend Reading – May 22, 2009
Discount Brokerage Survey
A reader, who is currently trying to complete his Ph. D, requires some data on website characteristics and their effect on customer loyalty to an online broker. He created a survey geared towards those who trade online with a discount brokerage which should take 5-10 minutes to complete. If you have the time, you can help someone in obtaining their Ph.D! He has also thrown in an incentive - all completed surveys will be randomly drawn for a $500 prize. Note that MDJ is not affiliated with this survey.

I did see his subscriber base, and my first thought was that you were on fire with the blog business.

Tucker, yes, it would be very challenging to maintain two blogs that post often along with a full time job. Heck, it’s challenging with one blog! :)
