club_cafe: Re: WCOM
You make a "misleading" statement below "However, in WCOM's case I believe the stock is clearly worthless." If you meant that in your opinion, the company will not revive and will not regain value, that is a valid opinion. If you meant that the stock ...

club_cafe: Member Buy out
Yes, it poses problems if you do not make payment before 12/31. In a nutshell, the IRS does not consider the member to be withdrawn until the money is paid. See the following for more information: http://www.bivio.com/trez_talk/mail-msg?t=11277600003 http://www.bivio.com/trez_talk/mail-msg?t=11213900003&s=1 Ira Smilovitz In a message dated 12/01/02 ...

WCOM
At our last meeting several of our members wanted to sell WCOM because of the loss we occurred, and the fact that WCOM is going bankrupt or has already gone bankrupt. It was brought to our attention that the stock is still trading. We could ...

Expense Ration
I think the expense ratio is a good item to track. However, you are comparing apples to oranges when you are then taking your expense ratios and comparing them to actively managed mutual funds. The fees quoted for mutual funds do not include many of ...

We also have 2 accounts, and both are interest bearing. One we use at State Discount for check writing, while the other (BuyandHold) is used for stock purchases. Both accounts were opened with only $20. Maintaining both accounts are very easy using Bivio. B- Original ...
