I have dealt with 1st Jersey Securities (FJS) for about a year now
and still haven't decided whether I'm being hustled or not.  Twice now
I have put $500 into a "hot" stock which was turned into $650 in one week.
You'll have to decide if that's good brokership or shady dealings
especially since I rolled one "profit" over into another investment
(i.e. purely paper profit) and I had to fight with the broker for 30
minutes to get a check instead of more stock on the other.  
 My FJS broker certainly seems to work hard and their commissions are
only $2 per transaction, but I DEFINITELY don't send them any money
that I can't lose suddenly.  After all, I enjoy Atlantic City every
so often....         You'll have to make up your own mind, but handle
with care.     Pete LaMaster houxh!pvl BTL HO x0040
