[quote=Still@jones]Let me respond: Huh? Huh?

Do you even know what caused this financial crisis? The retail brokerage business and retail banking business are quite sound in almost every company. Banks got sunk by their trading desks by being over-leveraged and tied up in complex derivative transactions. Comparing trading desk “oversight” to retail “oversight” is silly.

The oversight I promote (and that I am glad we offer) is: they make sure I only offer quality investments, make sure I do not churn a customers account, and protection from commingling or mishandling client’s funds. I believe this is all the oversight a retail customer needs.

Another boy wonder with what likely amounts to entire months of experience attempting to explain things he himself doesn't begin to grasp.      Spare us.    Why don't you, wind and BiLo get together for lunch Monday and solve all of the industry's problems?  That would leave you the rest of the week to fix the rest of the world's problems.[/quote]

Yeah, Months of experience, and I already know more than you!

you never said what was wrong with my answer.

Morphius, I think you should leave BiLo alone. He just had a couple of simple questions for us to research for him.


You’ve been in rare good form lately, my friend.   



Just subtle enough so that the poor young lad doesn’t even catch the joke. Very entertaining!

My bad. I was wrong on the months part.   Not months.    Not weeks.   Not even DAYS!   You’re not even out of training yet, but you know more than - and are going to 'splain - to those of us who have been practicing probably as long a you’ve been alive, what happened:



[quote=Still@jones] Why can’t i have an honest, aggressive, sexy trainer?Mine reminds me of Elmer Fudd![/quote]



It never even occurred to me that someone not even out of training would feel the need to lecture to those who have actually been making a living for years doing what they hope to one day BEGIN doing.



Amazing.   



I sure do miss the good old days when, like you, I knew absolutely everything there was to know.

Wind,



Yawn. I’ve made smarter things than you by eating fiber, lad.

  The beatdown was memorable and this is simply my way of saying thanks, that sh*t was funny.

I’m not surprised you’re reduced to guessing. You obviously don’t know enough to do more than guess.



Why don’t you go back to trying to impress trainees like still@jones. They’re much more your speed. The rest of us have seen your act many times before.

Because it’s much more fun to waste the time of a vet like you, who ran out of cheetos at your desk. So your on Registered Rep…worrying about what I am saying…

  He has time as his business is established.  You don't have the time.  Ironic.

Real Vets aren't struggling. Vets at Jones who have only sold American Funds, 30yr corporates, and BAC stock are struggling.

Does he have time?..or is that why alot of vets are struggling…because they have “time”…

Thats pretty ironic…plenty of posts of how vets don’t have time to prospect…make house calls…etc…but he has “time”…hmmm…awkward?..

  I don't know any vet that does not have time to prospect, I know plenty that don't have too though.  As far as house calls, does your doctor or lawyer make house calls?  What would you think of them if they did?

I’m sure you would think house calls where great, for the majority of us it would lump a doctor in with vacuum salesman, girl scouts, and Jones reps.

I’m not talking about doorknocking…I’m talking about house visits…has nothing to do with a salesman…

People bad mouth what works…thats why I expect to keep hearing Jones comments…Many people happy at Jones…and I’m sure many making 10x more than everyone on this site…

  Ten times more?  Don't you think that's a little, "My Dad makes more than your Dad?"
