I wish Schwab would take the other worthless piles of dog biscuits I own and simply make them disappear as well...

There is a way, say, open another account with Schwab, or anyone, transfer out all the good stuff out, just leaving the crap, then tell them you want to close the first account or give it to charity...

Charity, that would be a bad idea, would be like taking your garbage bag and giving it to a homeless person just in case you may have left something still worth eating in it.

At least I was not the only one with these worthless biscuits of slop. Hope you can clear your trash from your account. So far with schlub, I don't see any maintenance fees popping up yet. So I leave it be. Maybe I should just close it completely. Don't know how that works. But I feel, it is good to have a back up account. Thing is though I would have to fund it and I am hesitant to do so. It is a conundrum.

There is yet another way, has worked to me, hmmmm 3 maybe 4 times (but that was never my intention)

Call them up, complain, start calling everyone an asshole or a MF.

They'll shut down your account real quick, no charge....

I must hold the record for brokerage firms kicking me to the curb.

A guy from work died a few days ago from pancreatic cancer, came on fast and ended fast.

A colleague said he could pick me up tomorrow to go to the funeral home to look at the dead body. I said no. It is perhaps just me, but the last thing I want is a memory of looking at him dead (I have a photographic memory), I prefer keeping my memories of him alive.

The best I can do his think of him and this song;

And of course raise a glass...

He was a year or two younger than me.

It has me thinking about my eventual death, we'll all end up there eventually.

What I'd like, after my death, is that they extract all usable organs for transplants, that of course is possible BUT, then I want them to put the rest of my body into a wood chipper and spread it in the fields to give new life to new plantations as fertilizer. (most likely illegal)

Both ensure that I live on in some form..

Sorry to be so morbid
