Ease of transferring an IRA from my bank to Goldstar, via Wesleyan Investment Foundation. Got email confirmation and hard copies in the mail in a timely manner. Competitive interest rates.

It took too long to convert because I was never notified to call my previous account management company. Lack of communication is not a good thing

In the past many years, things have been unstable for me. Yes, I had some good and unexpected opportunities teaching at three colleges. But I ended up with multiple former employers. So I had a number of separate accounts that were just sitting there dormant, unattended, and in the hands of my former employers. Worse yet they were not growing. So I was very happy to have the help of Birch Gold and Gold Star, who both helped me to get these many accounts back under one source, in a secure place, with good advisors, and back under my control. Thanks, Chris Scarpino
