Just this morning when I woke up, I opened the Vanguard app, bought some shares of VTI, then got out of bed and went on with my day. You can do the same exact thing with the Schwab app (I have accounts at both). One reason I dislike Robinhood is that it seems to encourage speculative trading behavior as opposed to a proven long-term investment strategies. I don't care about free commissions much, because the only equities that I care about (index fund ETFs) are already available for free. I don't care at all about buying individual stocks. I don't care about buying cryptocurrencies either. And I don't care about cash management (y'know Robinhood, I have a real bank account that is actually FDIC insured, unlike the half-baked "savings" accounts you tried to sell us on) So for me, I actually greatly prefer using a more traditional brokerage that offers me exactly what I want and has a proven track record.
