Following the lead of a poster to JSMineset who got Charles Schwab to put his IRA stocks in certificate form, to be held by Charles Schwab (for a fee), reading "Charles Schwab for the benefit of Your name here" I called TDAmeritrade to see if I could get certificates in my Roth IRA in the same way and was told that they don't do that. Has anyone had any success with Ameritrade or switched to Schwab and gotten them that way? The Ameritrade lady asked me if I was doing this due to some articles I'd read about securing my shares so I know they've received other requests.
