got a postcard recently, telling me there was some class action deal with a mutual fund i own. do some digging, and get sent this multi page packet....ugh.

now, in my own, spare, free, unpaid for time, i get to go thru about 8 years of records to determine how many shares of various funds i owned on various dates so i can fill in this form, in the hope that i'll get more than about a buck fiddy in return down the road....

the weasel lawyers get paid their fat fee, and i get to do their clerical work for free.... :beat::beat: :kick:

Yeah, I got a couple of those in the past. Just pitched them.

Oh, and just now my wife handed me a letter from United States District Court. Fantastic! I've been selected for jury duty! :ack:

DAB, did you have a stockbroker/fund manager at that time? If so, that's their job to dig through the paperwork.

I forgot:
