I have received some material about opening a "Schwab One" account at
the Charles Schwab Discount Broker.  I'm interested.  What do you think
of that account?

I'd open it for two purposes: one is for speculative buying & selling,
and another is for the Visa Debit Card.  There's no annual fee, and I
prefer it to a credit card, because I don't have to worry about a
Finance Charge if the bill is not paid on time: in effect I pay in
advance, and I get good interest on it.

Please reply to the Reply-To; I'll post a summary if enough responses
are received.

P.S.:
I know, I know, the best investment would be for me to just convert all
my US$ into Yen and leave it in a 0.3% account here; I'm talking about
something OTHER than that.  Also, do they have a 0039 number (international
WATS line: toll-free from outside the US)?  Didn't see one in their
literature....
