I happen to use both ING and ShareBuilder, so I'm hoping that they either continue to operate (at least in the customers perception) as two separate firms, or that they provide some option to merge my two accounts into one. Both do have a nice, "easy investing" type of approach, so I think both have mass appeal in that sense. Certainly ING's brand is much larger, so perhaps the SB side can leverage some good exposure here to help drive their accounts. I received the same email and I’m wondering the same questions.
