Maybe this is of interest to someone here. You talk to an advisor about your finances and get a $50.00 check for your trouble. This is from coolsavings.com. Click <http://www105.coolsavings.com/scripts/more_info_free_stuff.asp?SessionID=753160933&Off0=1320400000>
I responded to a mailing for AMEX financial advisors last summer. Called and made an appt., received a letter from one of their people confirming the appointment. Left work, drove in pouring rain, then waited over an hour. The guy didn't even show up. He was paged, people went looking for him, etc., he never responded. Never received any other communication from him.
That sux. That's why I made the post. I figured I would let someone else do it first and then respond back. LOL.
Sometimes we have offers where you can get 2500 points for your card just for coming in and meeting with an advisor.
