  • Tornado Learn and Earn, $50 bucks extra, some requirements.

    All,

    Tornado.com is an up and coming brokerage app. A friend got me turned on to them earlier this week. They have a "learn and earn" program where by you take quizzes and get $10 per day, up to $50.

    The company itself is not a scam, they're evidently registered with the SEC and have a Madison avenue address that checks out.

    The deal with these kinds of offers is the companies basically want to get you integrated into their system so you'll become a paying customer. Tornado has evidently decided that paying people to take quizzes will get you in the system for a sufficient length of time such that you'll let them manage your money for you.

    In any event, if you want to pick up a few extra bucks and don't mind signing up for yet another brokerage, the program is here.

    From what I'm reading, $50 might be the cap on rewards.
    Also, it looks like it costs $4.99 a month to use the platform.

    This could be a good topic to write a review on

      BJ - I had a look at it again. There may be a free version of Tornado. I suspect there probably as, its obvious this kind of "learn and earn" play is a way for them to hack their customer acquisition, so they may be willing to waive the fee to get people in the door.

        Update on this. They did try to charge me 5.99 a month. So I asked to switch to the "free" version. The free version charges $4.50 per trade, but there isn't account maintenance fee. This is fine, I can just sit back and collect my dividends.
