Years ago I decided that a Bank was a crooked institute! I was scoffed at and ridiculed at, that I refused to use a bank account. In fact I refused to use any service of a bank, as it was to my belief that Banks are there only for taking your money and if something would happen, they will not give you your money when that something happens…
I did use a Russian bank for a year, when I first came here and in America I was forced to use a bank to get my money direct deposited in. That word forced, is a fact! I would not be paid unless I used a bank and had a ATM card. So if I was to be paid, I opened an account and on payday I immediately withdrew all funds at the banks own ATM (To not incur a charge to withdraw!) and never left anything but the pennies in the account. I know that is not what the bank desired, but hey! I was forced to have a bank account and to top it all off it was a bank that the corporation said I had to use… 🙂
I guess my feelings are and were correct and now in Cyprus, we have an example of what happens when we trust the banks…
For those who are living under a rock and have no idea what is happening in the world! Cyprus has closed the banks until Thursday and are using that extended holiday excuse to figure out just how much of their money they are going to steal from the Cyprus citizens and other countries industries. The bank closings are a reaction to the huge bank run that started on the banks and in answer they closed the doors…
This is a classic, “See how far the masses can be pushed!”
This is an idea that politicians and banks desire. When you need money just take it by force, all in the name of, “We have no choice! We have to or else!”
Well, many years ago, I gave up on banks! I saw the issue then and see that the issue has become exceptionally crooked and stupid…
Oh yes and I know what you say, “It will not happen in the USA!”
I guess that you do not realize that America is the home of the IMF and its headquarters are in Washington, D.C., United States…
That is all you need to know about the International Monetary Fund (IMF)…
Have a nice day and think about your money, that you have tucked “nice and safe” in a Bank. There are a hundred ways to store your money and all of them pay better than the interest in a bank…
