Cash is king now........

was speaking to a bar owner last night ...the bank called him and asked why he was not depositing any money any more ,,,,,,he just laughed at them ..

He told me he gets discounts from suppliers for paying cash .....or they only want cash ...so he said why bother driving to the bank ........he just deals in cash now
does not trust the banks.........

happy001

He told them, there is money in my account so what is the problem ....but you used to bank every other day ......he said yes I USED to........ ;D

It is so clear here that cash is king. The mongs who run the gumman and the banks seem baffled by folks' refusal to trust them  noooo:

Are they really that dumb?

In a word?





















YES!
"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." 

Well, someone had to say it!

A mate of mine has a mortgage with Alpha Bank. They wrote a letter to him earlier in the year stating "I these difficult times we have decided to give you a holiday period from paying your mortgage......until October 2013".  Thumbs:

They must have changed their mind as each WEEK he puts his pay check into his account they take a mortgage payment leaving him broke.  noooo:
