=== Just like MSDW!
Probably a stupid question but ... what's MSDW?
(Has nothing to do with the Bob Dole Foundation and their asking Clinton to give one of their first paid addresses, does it?)
Time to switch brokers alert!
The question is who came up with the idea and made it clear that they wanted slick willie, or else??????????
I'm moving my accounts to Scott ASAP...
If I worked for Schwab, I'd move jobs. If I had an account with them, I'd find a new broker.
On the other hand, I would much rather have Clinton talking at a Schwab banquet than at a 'Rat rally or fundraiser. For whatever the reason, the 'rats still love BJ and the less he does to rally support for the riverboat spy-boy the better.
MSDW = Morgan Stanley-Dean Witter financial firm.
From the article:
"The last time Mr. Clinton was slated to speak at a financial services conference — in February 2001 at New York-based Morgan Stanley’s Global Leveraged Finance Conference in Boca Raton, Fla. — Morgan Stanley pulled the plug on his appearance because clients complained. Mr. Clinton had recently pardoned financier Marc Rich, and there were revelations that the former president received gifts from the billionaire fugitive’s ex-wife.
Morgan Stanley chairman Philip J. Purcell fired the person who decided to book Mr. Clinton in 2001."
I sent Schwab an email notifying them my account will be moved. Several days ago and no answer from Schwab. I assume they don't give a hoot what the customers think.
Not good....
I also contacted Schwab. They ignored me. I'm transferring my investment holdings elsewhere.
