Anyone taking a worthless security deduction for owners of Washington Mutual stock in 2008?

I read somewhere where you can still get a few cents for your shares . . .

If you can still get something for the shares, it's not worthless. Have your client tell her broker to sell it for $1, then she can take the loss.

My client checked with the broker and was told to wait and deduct for 2009. 2008 still had some value and can't deduct partial loss.

My bartender said he would have written it off in 2007. He didn't say why.

I would never take a bartender's advice. Everyone knows that mechanics are the real tax experts.
