This has been reported before in a somewhat different form, but still bears repeating, it seems to me...

"Assets held by the online brokerage industry will
increase from $415 billion at the end of 1998 to $3
trillion by 2003. To give an idea of the scope of this
growth, the entire national debt of the United States
is over $5 trillion today. The company said U.S. online
trading households would grow to 20 million in 2003
from 4.3 million in 1998, with 40 percent of the U.S.
households that hold stocks trading online."

And that projection alone--if accurate, of course--is reason enough to hang on to your EGRP shares...
