We need to finish trades by today for like 50 clients, so they'll settle by the end of the year, and since we just switched brokerages a lot of them don't have sigs on file to ACH the proceeds for their RMD's. Even sending checks is a problem because they don't have sigs for their distribution amounts either. We need them all today. And they're probably all busy with Christmas stuff.
What am I doing? Looking long and hard at my windshield and wondering how hard I have to bash my head through it to elicit permanent brain damage.
