had a call from them last night. Have id on phone and saw it was from Michigan. I don't know anyone there so did not answer it.
I will speak with my broker and tell him I'm uninterested in surprise phone calls from the Edward Jones company.
I hate unsolicited calls. I turn on my fax when I get the.
Same with me. They claimed to represent Edward Jones investment brokerage co., and wanted to ask 4 questions to evaluate one of their local reps I had seen a few hours earlier. That rep probably felt he'd made a good impression, and immediately gave my name and phone # to the main office employee evaluation dept. No way their calling me was a coincidence. I found it annoying and unprofessional.
Some of these people calling may be with Big Brother, most likely the SEC and I'm not talking Southeastern Conference. Recently I had a very small "troubled" investment with Edward Jones and had to answer 4 little questions which I was told was being required by the Securities & Exchange Commission. I suspect it does not bode well for investors over at least the next 4 years as Big Brother is probably trying to figure out how to "use" investors' monies to its best advantage. Why should I tell anyone if I think I can live the next 3 years without touching my investments? It's nobody's freakin' business what I think I can or can't do with it. I realize the presumption is that I probably didn't "earn" it or won't need it, but we have already seen what the "global" investment community [meltdown] can get away with following the "crash" and subsequent government bailout of its own inept, corrupt, secondary mortgage agencies. BTW, where did all that money go anyhow? Just don't answer the phone and then look up the number and read the comments posted; if you do talk to them, tell you have plans for your money in the short term.
