I had a similar idea yesterday. I had thoughts of playing with stocks, cuz i think it's fun to play with them. It's a game to me. I am a risk taker anyway. So i tried to set up an account with Scottrade yesterday and wasn't able cuz of no ssn.

But today an agent called me and said i can create an account with merely an identification and itin. so i was like "sweet!" And ima go create the account next week..then the money should start rolling in
