This Edward Jones guy has space issues
This guy's Edward Jones broker knew that one of his clients was going to visit a prospective college with his daughter.
Not only that, but he also knows there's a list of colleges they are considering.*
Did Dad really call his broker from campus to ask if it's ok if he's considering sending his daughter to a particular college? Seriously?
I can so relate to this. The other day I called by Voya broker, who used to be my ING broker and before that was my Edward Jones broker- to sheepishly suggest to her that I was strongly considering ordering takeout at a chinese restaurant. I just kind of wanted reassurance that I wasn't getting in over my head concerning my currrent retirement fund status.
She told me to put the menu down and walk out.
*Once Dad replied "you remembered that, too" I thought there's no way this call ends without Dad telling his broker "love you" before hanging up.
So I'm not the only feeling squirmy after seeing spots from the new EJ ad campaign? Creepola.
ReplyDeleteThe whole campaign is kind of shudder-inducing. Creepola.
