JFD, Morgan, t2k, jd, etc...

I have a question for the group. Recently my *full service* broker came back to me and presented me with a "fee based" proposal for servicing my account going forward. To put it short, I was pissed. I manage my money, make the investment decisions, and he does the trade execution and accounting for me. That's the extent of his value add.

Now he thinks he's in a position to make 1% on my nest egg, and I'm about to yank my account.

My "QUESTION FOR THE GROUP":

What is the best investment house out there to meet my needs? Should I go to a discount brokerage house, and if so, what is the best one out there?

I have taken this service for granted, that was until I recently received the good news. I need some advice as to who has the best value for the commission dollar.

Any input would be appreciated.
