Right, what you say is the way I understood it. From your earlier post I thought there was an alternative I didn't know about. Your right, it's NOT worth it; I just don't know what else to do about it. Spots PS. If you want some comic relief, which I could use about now, I ended up with 1.9 shares of stock in a DRIP account I thought I'd closed (directed in writing to liquidate, but they were hiding something). Then a dividend came along on the 1.9 share, and the turkeys took my dime, deducted a 7-cent commission, and bought .001 share with the rest. Arrggh. I hope it cost 'em 20 bucks to send out their stupid statements. Now I've liquidated my 1.901 shares (again), but any day I'm expecting a statement with a 0.00021 share balance or some such. Can hardly wait for the next dividend date ... (Oh sh*t, it's ex-div now, just got the check the other day. I wonder if I'm joking as much as I think I am about that 0.00021-share balance.)
