Schwab acquired TD Ameritrade a couple years ago

If you recall, a couple years ago I started the "What companies permit BUY of GERS" dialogue. It started after I was denied purchase of GERS by TDA. Everyone else was thoughtful enough to jump in and advise others where to go to BUY and SELL. I backed out of the conversation after dropping the stink bomb.

TDA has always allowed SELL of GERS; but, not allowed BUY of GERS

Here is my journey:
- Scott Trade Account: BUY GERS / SELL GERS
- TD Ameritrade purchased Scottrade, my account converted to Ameritrade
- TD Ameritrade No BUY GERS / Only SELL GERS
- Schwab purchase TD Ameritrade, my account not converted to Schwab
- Two-(2) weeks ago, visit Schwab office with my son to set up his account. Asked the status of absorbing TDA into Schwab. Person rolled his eyes, laughed, and we had a good yuk-yuk about knowing nothing.

I'm still in for the long haul. Can't get any worse than my Bitzio and Attis Stocks.
