I would actually recommend that no one get a trading account at all until they are sure they are ready for it. The best part of a managed account (robo or human) is it keeps your fingers out of the pie.
Not to say that no one should pick their own investments, I just wouldn't send someone down that path, especially someone without the time to make up for the mistakes that often come with that learning curve.

That 'advice' is verging on dangerous, considering the poster's circumstances.
