This can make the 4%, depending on tax bracket, less than 4%. PLUS redemption via c/c is NOT worth 4%.
I'm mad I wasted a 5/24 slot! Your thoughts, do you view this differently?
Is it possible that the USB manager with whom you met was not so "Smartly," and simply mistaken about the issuance of a 1099?
