Online investment firm’s investing workshop helps customers make better–informed decisions

BOSTON, Aug. 18, 2009 —Scottrade (www.scottrade.com), a leading branch–supported online investment firm, is hosting a free workshop in Boston to help Scottrade investors and traders make better–informed decisions.
