What's your experience of brokers been like?

The ones I actually use rarely call. So that means any calls I do get are trying to sell me something I'm probably not interested in

Here's some useless trivia. Was watching a show called Pawn Stars the other day.
Apparently those 3 balls were used over pawn shops back in the days when reading skills were scarce. So they could tell it was a pawn shop by the 3 balls. Universal sign.

Ah yes its that time of the year, kids school fees to be paid, LOL

.

I speak to my broker by phone a couple of times per year, but he NEVER phones me with offers or buying advice.
When we speak certain companies will be mentioned.
Twice a year I am sent an updated portfolio with general chit chat on the state of the markets etc etc.

worthless scum

I've never had a broker, just real estate. I dated a girl who was a secretary at Goldman Sachs JB Were once. Some good stories came out of there. A sister and brother once walked in, dressed like ferals to sign some documents. The whole office was watching and couldn't believe it. This brother and sister had just inherited 20 million each. Grandkids of the Bunnings family.

I'm toying with buying £15 K worth of those shares ( ISA limit ). I reckon there's some legs on them.

I'll buy once I find the cure for procrastination.
