Wow, good one

The reason is… you are comfortable being fed like a cow. You like "Management giving you an hour long weekly commercial of products to sell their clients to generate revenue. This all coming from a manager who’s never made a mortgage payment from a commission check. You like going to worthless meetings because then you don’t have to work. You like the idea of being a slave. Forget about an entrepreneurial spirit, or acting like a Rhino vs a cow.



The Bank is a perfect fit for you. I like my odds in the jungle competing against a cow



Priceless, and the end.

I don’t want to be the bearer of bad news to all you “brokers” out there, but with BAI brokers bringing their huge books of business (admittedly, were padded by bank referrals for years) to a wirehouse platform complete with top notch technology…well, they (we) will put all these legacy ML and other legacy wirehouse guys on notice starting Oct. 26th.

MSSB, UBS–get ready to have accounts ripped out from underneath you because if we can do $800k (60% annuitized managed money, not L-share annuities) in production with bank brokerage tools and platform, just imagine what we will do beginning the 26th.

    I didn't know ML technology was so advanced it could convert a glorified teller into a financial professional.  That is impressive!

you boys are all very good comedians with the quick one liners and all (quite entertaining actually), but I noticed a lot of postings during market hours which I imagine can’t be good for buisiness…let me guess, you’ve all funded enough Roths and $100 PIPs to take it easy for a few days??



In the meantime, I signed ACATs for $570k and $1.2M today. New clients are very happy to be at Merrill…I mean, the bank (I mean, Merrill).

What did you have two people who moved branches?

Congrats!



Although, I’ve been able to move $10M out of my old firm in the last 30 days and my payout is now 3 times yours.



Not trying to be a jerk, but you should realize that you are working very hard to give most of that money to Merrill. So you moved a total of $1.77M which is pretty nice, but I only have to move 1/3 of that to make the same.

Unlikely. My guess is that if a study were done about the numbers advisors lie about the most, I would guess that $570k and $1.2M are the numbers most frequently lied about.



Quit posting Sallie. Some guys on here bashed you. I thought you were kind of hot. I’m sorry they bashed you, go back to trying to recruit some new blood. Somewhere else.

The new bull what a kick

This guy is really hooked on the kool aid, BA picked up a great a$$ kisser with this guy.   Six months to a year he will wake up it could be longer, And he will figure out what a fool he is      We have all seen this type before.   I hope is he does not hurt to many people in the short time he is their.

Funny. I posted during market hours, but I have larger accounts transferring in and more of them. Shut your face TARP boy…everyone on this forum owns you, literally. If you pay off my mortgage, well call it even.

I could be wrong, but don’t the BAI guys get the new grid at ML?  If so, it would be pretty hard to make 3x as much as anybody there (assuming no penalty box).

  And I don't think the guy is leaving BAI.  Their group gets moved to the ML platform, so he isn't trying to "move" his customers anywhere.
Nov 4, 2009 6:45 pm

Lest ye forget that Merrill Lynch no longer exists.  Those former ML guys are now employees of BofA.  It will sink in when they get their first pay stub. 

Nov 4, 2009 7:32 pm

I think you missed the point. 

Nov 4, 2009 8:22 pm

Actually, I was replying to the guy before you.  There is no debating that the OP is a jacka$$. 

    Regardless, people seem to have a misunderstanding of the transition of BAI to the ML platform.  Yes, BofA owns ML, but BAI was still transitioned to the ML unit.  There is a substantial difference in it going BAI to ML, vs. ML to BAI, which drastically improves the pay rate of the OP and his group, which I'm not sure was understood be previous posters, so I thought I'd add. 
Nov 5, 2009 3:32 am

What is OP?

Nov 7, 2009 11:35 pm

I have been transitioned to a ML office and it has been the worst transition. Phones are a problem compter programs and platforms are not comaptiable. It is my opinion, while people suggest that ML is in for a rude awakening, it is clearly obvious to me that nothing is changing for ML brokers. We have been absorbed and the bank could care less about our clients. All of our Fund Strat accounts are going to be downgraded to fund advised unless we switch them to ML managed fund portfolios. I have never seen BAC get more bitch slapped until ML came along. They are literally getting sh*t on like seniors picking on freshman. It is almost funny to watch. Guys like Frank Kulach are getting castrated and will be looking for a job in a couple months.    Again it is my opinion that any policy or business decision is now all about how ML does. I have not seen BAC implemet one management decision at all.
