iShares Silver Trust (SLV)

[drobx]

Two or three years ago I enrolled in Schwab's "Securities Lending Fully Paid" program. This allows my shares to be borrowed for use by short sellers, and I receive interest payments. They contacted me to join because there was a big demand for OSTK shares. That lasted for half a year or so, and I made quite a bit of money for doing nothing. At one point I was getting paid interest at the rate of 39%. Anyway, after that I received no more offers - until now. Now they want my SLV shares. My point in telling the long story is that this is a pretty rare occurrence. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
