When it comes to investing, I want to make as much profit as possible.  Obviously, I want to minimize the risk as well, but the bottom line is I am doing this to make money.

There are many ways to make a larger profit (such as buying low and selling high), but most of these methods don’t really have anything that you can control.  So you can usually find yourself being the “victim” of the transaction, with no real control on your end.

But the one thing that I can influence is the fees that I pay on the transactions.  It took me a while but I was able to find a commodities broker that provides great service at a great price.  It has not only increased my return on investment, but over the course of a year turns into thousands of dollars in extra profits.

That is what we are looking for as investors, right?
