Claim is that an annuity indexed to the S&P has averaged 9.1% yearly. And can never go negative even when the Market crashes. Too good to be true?

Not to be all doom and gloom, but in my opinion, the writing is on the wall regarding the economy, the real estate and financial markets, and I am extremely worried about the future. So what are the best investments during serious recessions or even depressions or hyperinflation? I'm not simply talking about securing/holding onto current value, but to take advantage of the situation.

I.e., what were the best investments during the Great Depression? Gold? Other precious metals/natural resources?

For example: I invest $500 into sharebuilder or scottrade, and after about 4 or 5 months I decide to take my money back or cancel an account, how much they will charge me?

Also, is it ok to take ½ of my money back?

I bought my first options contract yesterday, INTC JAN/08 Call Strike 20. Premium 1.60. Today it closed at 1.75. The stock closed at around 19.34. Now even though the option is not in the money, I still have a $15 dollar profit. Obviously I wouldn't exercise, but I'm thinking of just selling the option if it goes up a bit more. So even though the option is not in the money, I've still made money on it. Am I correct in my thinking? What is the advantage of exercising an option, if you can just sell it outright, and be able to make a profit even though it's not in the money yet?

I am looking for very low commissions and hoping to find an online brokering firm where I can trade small amounts of stocks easily and without losing money to fees. Also, my starting balance is small so I need a low minimum requirement.

Lastly, I really need to be able to trust the firm with my money, so no one that I haven't heard of.

Thanks!

Or since I already filed my return, can I only invest with 2007 contributions??

Does it matter since the Roth doesn't really have a tax effect?
