> I don't think they actually want you to trade on margin.

Have you used RH? I use it for exactly your example, every other paycheck I put some in VOO and a bit on some individual stocks. They push Robinhood Gold so hard. There used to be a glowing gold banner at the top of your portfolio advertising to join gold and get $10,000 today or whatever.

Why don't you just buy VOO on vanguard considering there is no commission fee on vanguard when buy vanguard ETFs?

Because I'd still like to buy other stocks. There's also no fee on RH so what is the downside of using RH?
