Does anyone have a list of other banks, besides maspeth and ridgewood? The website is www.worthmagazine.com, and there is an article about thrift conversions in the archives.

Thanks for the info, Fidelity indicated that they need the cusip numbers, before they would sell, I gather there large size and audience, don't want people not able to honor the order and have to go after them? My opinion on Ridgewood, is that based upon cutoff/record dates the IPO if it happens should be set 2 years before going public, give or take a few months. The next round after most mutual fund banks convert to stock is consolidations. That's were real money can be made, and not limitations on the allocations. I opened my Ridgewood accounts right after the Roslyn conversion, 1/97. But only have minimum amount of monet in there, would you suggest, that I add more money into Ridgewood, or do they go by the balance as of record date?????? Scott
