IRA fundable with credit card?
I was asked if any IRA's at banks or brokerages can still be funded with a credit card? My answer was no and BofA was one of the last.
Anyone differ in opinion?

PM if you find the remaining institutions, please. Lets not repeat the Tragedy of the Commons ala Plains Capital Bank.

I think Sharebuilder.com allows you to start an IRA and fund it using a credit card; could be wrong. Try it and post here....

I've not found anyone doing that. Althought that would be pretty good.
