Fishhead--I have a couple of questions. How long have you had your etrade max rate acct? Are you happy with it? I was just looking at this last night. I see the penalty is stiff if you fall below 5k.

Are the ATM with drawls completely free or is there a monthly cap?

I trade stocks as well. Are you using etrade as your broker as well? the reason I ask, I use TOS and i was wondering how long it would take a ACH transfer to go from Etrade to my broker?

thanks

shiz- Keep your balance above 5,000 and ALL ATM transfers are totally free(reinbursed fee by ATM issued immediately by ETRADE) and the best part is one can make unlimited amounts of these!

Been with them for two years now and way more than satisfied with them.

Currently their Savings pays 3.3% and one can transfer between the brokerage and savings for free also.

Great customer service from what I've experienced.

Just hope they don't get bought out by TDAMERITRADE, as their stock is only trading at around 3.00 these days.

Fisherman... have you every seriously thought about taking bottles from one state where they give you 5cents when you return them and instead take them to a neighboring state where you can get 10cents like that Sienfeld episode long ago??? if you calculate the extra gas but have enough bottles to over come it you could make a small scalp

LOL

Actually a few years ago I took ten bottles with me on my trip to Maine(from Vegas) to redeem the 10 cents per bottle they pay in that state.

Turned the bottles in and just told the teller to give me a lottery ticket in return...........hit for $5 and cashed out. This was one of the highlights of my trip. It was a good win!

Before you ask, yes, some think I have an obsessive compulsive disorder in terms of this shit.........I prefer to call it as just being competitive.

I have to agree here. This might be going a little overboard!!!:think2:

It was fun

Give me a break, at least I'm not a pack-rat or hoarder.

In fact, liquidating on a daily basis these days.

By the way, will reply to your email tommorrow.........

Enjoy Vegas, it's great.

Make sure you take the MRS. to Mt. Charleston to get away for awhile......head up there now before the snow prevents you. It is my favorite spot in the area. Enjoy

Just busting your balls a little. I figured if Billsey goes after you then it gives me the green light to take a shot or two.

I live in Summerlin just off Charleston, how far west do I go from the RR casino? Looks to be another half hour out, damn I should have moved out there if I wanted more land. Maybe one day!! Why dont you get yourself a nice little place out there for a few months during football season. One lasy horray!!


I patiently await your response on my e-mail. I have a meeting tomorrow nite with Kermit, should be fun. I am ready to start getting some things going.:pope:

$500 fine in Michigan if caught bringing out-of-state cans in for refund. The local beer companies joined together and pulled out of the local Wal-Mart over it. The distributors were losing their asses.
