Anyone else had to deal with them? What a nightmare. I had joint stock in my and my late mother's name (bad idea, don't do this to your kids). Turns out the stock had split many times over the years. It has taken me 4 years to untangle this mess and get about $3,100 out of it (not a bad sum)...

I'll have enough in 4-6 years to FIRE fully. What do you wish you'd done at this stage? Any advice on what needs to be done at this stage?
