banks and the people who run them are some of the shadiest motherfuckers on earth. shit i can remember back to when I could use any fucking ATM i wanted for free. now god help you if you have to use another bank's ATM, thats $2-$3 right there. I just read something on cnn.com today about states contracting with banks to send out prepaid cards instead of unemployment checks and then the fucking banks are charging fees like 25 cents for a balance check, 50 cents to call the customer service line, $2 per transaction, etc to people who are fucking unemployed. the fucking government should have let the bastards go under or agree to a long list of pro-consumer conditions to get bailout money |
I love those random $8 "service charges" on my wachovia accounts just because i fucking talked to someone on the phone. shit pisses me off. i was on the phone yesterday trying to use the automated system and it transferred me to a rep because their systems were down and i had to tell her to waive that service fee since i had originally intended to use the automated service and she was like, "oh ok yea i'll waive that". fuckin bitch wasn't going to even do it, i had to tell her.
@ OP: i would go with 401k if you plan on staying with your company for ever and if they match a percentage. seems to be the safer of the group with the way shit is these days. the only good investment choice right now (at least in my opinion) is real estate if you have buying power (cash).
