and that was the part outside of IRAs -- two IRAS held about 1500 and 500 but of course there was no tax owed ----- given I called the payments Rollovers (as those checks -- not in the non IRA !! -- were made out to the brokerage)
that 24-28 thousand or so helped cover a lot of the pain I had with common and JPS - might have made me about even (when I add in the original value of the COOP stock)
