How to Buy Amazon for the Cost of a Penny Stock

There are plenty of good reasons to invest in Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN). Not only has the online retail giant been expanding into areas such as the pharmacy and grocery markets, but its share price has consistently increased over the past five years, save for a few dips and blips along the way.

But investing in Amazon may not seem feasible if you're on a tight budget and don't have a ton of money to funnel into a brokerage account. As of this writing, Amazon is trading at $3,187.01 a share.

Not only is that a lot of money to come up with, but it's also a lot of money for a single share of one company's stock. Still, if you're eager to add Amazon to your portfolio, there's an easy way to do it, even if funds are limited on your end.
