After being one of the POAs that was let go from Merrill, what would it be like going to Wachovia?  Do you think Wells Fargo will do the same with layoffs that BoA/Merrill Lynch did?  Would it be the same problems?

  Is anyone familiar with Woodbury Financial?  I presume it is an independent through Hartford?    THanks!

As a current WS newbie < 5 years in the biz…what are your AUM and production when you were let go? I think every newbie in the biz is concerned for their safety…especially us guys going at it alone and not part of a team.

I’m guessing either would beat World Financial Group.

You just got screwed over because of the ineptitude, greed and arrogance of a big firm and your asking if you should go to another big firm or be the owner of your business...hmmm, let's think about it....

How many times do you have to get screwed over before you learn that all the big firms are the same...
