Welcome to DRIP Central
For many individuals, the biggest obstacle that prevents them from getting started investing is a lack of money. "I don't have thousands of dollars to open a brokerage account. How can I invest in the stock market?" The answer is quite simple: invest in stocks through dividend reinvestment plans -- also known as DRIPs (or DRPs). Using DRIPs, anyone can build a portfolio of common stocks with no or low commissions or fees.
DRIP Central offers a comprehensive collection of links, articles, tutorials, and other resources, from all across the World-Wide Web. If you're just getting started with DRIPs, or are an experienced DRIP investor, you're bound to find DRIP Central a useful site.
