how do you actually recieve money from the stock market?

Question

i don't know how you get money into your account from stocks

Answer 1

If you own shares, then the company may pay a dividend. In which case they will send you a check or put the money right into your bank account.

If you sell shares, then your broker or the broking system will send you a check or, again, put the money right into your bank account.

You may have a 'trading' account that money from shares goes into. To actually spend that money on something other than shares, you would have to transfer it to your regular account first.

Answer 2

you get bonds or dividend checks either way you will get a little money bonds is a set amount of money you will get regaurdless of how the company is doing this can be good or bad but dividend checks depend on how good the stock is doing for instance if you got stock in google when it first came out at 130 dollars now its worth like 600 something then you make a ton of money on just how many shares you got

Answer 3

2 ways ,

1) you buy a stock like say IBM in Sept 2006 when it is trading about $85 , then in Sept 2007 , when it is trading for $115 , you sell it and get $30 more per share than what you paid . . .
