Are there any benefits to opening a Joint Account for the stock market?
Question:
Answer:
The costs are the same. 1) It may be more convenient to have either person available to make decisions if a stock needs to be bought or sold quickly and you don't want to give your broker "discretionary power". What if one of you is out of town, sick, etc. 2) Inheritance is automatic in a joint account if one person dies.
I may be out of line here, but I would think twice or thrice about having a potential future "ex-friend" on my investment account.
No.
Joint account with a friend could be complicated in terms of taxation, source of income and most importantly judgement calls (When to buy or sell).
