Some brokerage firms will set a minimum at $1,000, $2,000, or more. Others may allow you to open an account with a smaller amount of money as long as you agree to have money deposited regularly, often on a monthly basis, from a linked checking or savings account. Increasingly, many require no minimum deposit at all.
There are no tax "penalties" for withdrawing money from an investment account. This is because investment accounts do not receive the same tax-sheltered treatment as retirement accounts like an IRA or a 403(b). There are also no age restrictions on when you can withdraw from your investment account.
