A Massive Red Flag for Robinhood's Gold Subscriptions

Motley Fool - Wed Jul 3, 9:44AM CDT

Robinhood's (NASDAQ: HOOD) Gold subscription is a great way for the company to change its incentive structure from traditional brokers. It allows Robinhood to offer incentives competitors can't match and have a revenue source to fall back on.

What's not clear is the price for different customers. $5 per month is advertised, but as Travis Hoium details, this isn't the price everyone gets for Robinhood Gold.
