I've written off Stifel as they have not been responsive and they don't even have an office in our town. Morphius was probably referring to going indy, not Stifel.

What is with people recently? I quote a direct statement. Your statement. That statement has no reference to Steifel. None. I respond to that exact statement. I make no mention of Steifel. None.
So what does your response above regarding Steifel have to do with anything?
For the record, when I quoted that statement, and responded to that statement, I was ALSO not agreeing with any of the other thousands of posts on this forum that I did not quote or refer to. Just in case that wasn’t clear.

I apologize. It just seems that some may jet to what may feel like AGE but SN is not remotely close to our culture at all...in my view at least. Thank you for the feed back Gekko.

Morphius goes all “Matrix” when you allude to the idea that he works for a wirehouse.
{Enter} How did SF get that rap anyway as the next AGE (other than they are right down the road in St. Louis)? {The end}[quote=Gordon Gekko] Morphius goes all “Matrix” when you allude to the idea that he works for a wirehouse.

Morph my friend…SN took and opened up shop pretty much next door as the “new” AGE. They recruited my guys and gals as the new AGE. This they are not. They (SN) represent themselves as us. Again they are not. I will say that because of our regional disconnect this is what I have to go by. Please do post to me with what I am missing in this picture. SN in my region believe that they are the new AGE. I however will never believe this to be fact.
This website is more addictive than Facebook, NCGNTO. Run away while you still are a Newbie!
I'm just joshing, you can actually get some good information and perspective on our industry.He’s not kidding, NCNGTO. I submit as evidence the same dozen or so folks who post here multi-daily, religiously. Spend your spare time calling clients and prospecting.
Please keep in mind I am a big producer, female I must add…so grrrr to u…what u got???/Maverick!
Using Nick Murray’s data, if I cold called every time I posted on this site, I would have like 30 new clients with a million dollars each. Of course, unless I shorted the market or bought CDs, all 30 would be burning me in effigy when they got their October statement.
Don't know if Wells is down with OPP (Protocol). Why would a firm not sign on? They look like Mavericks, but in a bad way. Kind of like McCain.I know several former AGE people that went to Stifel, so far I have not heard anything negative…Have any of you?
Only the fact that most clients have never heard of them, kinda similar to when WB took over AGE. My clients that knew WB were asking "You got bought by a bank in Florida?"

I more go "matrix" when people get riled up and respond to stuff I never even SAID, as in Steifel and defending racist comments (although that issue got resolved). It takes enough time and energy defending the stuff I DO say - there's not enough time to try and worry about stuff I don't even say!
But I still enjoy the {enter} and {the end} keys! That alone makes up for some of the other cr*p!!

NCGNTO, We’re talking at cross purposes. I have no problem with your contention that SN is not AGE, although they may be closer to the old AGE (my former home) than many others. But that doesn’t make them AGE.
Stick around. We need more female posters of the opposite gender (intentional double negative of sorts there, FWIW). Poor Babs and Miss Jones need some reinforcements!

[/quote] Not that AGE really had that much name recognition either. most of my clients thought I worked for "AG Edward Jones"“Oh, we have an AG Edwards at the local strip mall. I met the young man walking door-to-door in our neighborhood”.
It wasn't perfect being AG Edwards now that you mention it.Back to the topic, I don’t care so much what the Wells offer looks like. I want to know when they are going to let us know what it is. Is everyone hearing sometime around Thanksgiving?

If you don’t care what the offer looks like, why does it matter when they present it? I’m confused.
