Yeah...I do wires from my bank a lot. The time it takes for it to hit my trading account depends on how busy the Fed is, but it's never been longer than an hour for me, and it's usually just a matter of minutes. Calling your broker and letting them know that it is on the way speeds it up. They look for it and post it as soon as it hits.
"Sort of" is such a harmless thing to say. "Sort of". It's just a filler. "Sort of" - It doesn't really mean anything. But after certain things, "sort of" means everything. Like after "I love you" or "You're going to live" or "It's a boy".
