This is what people want. Nice high unemployment so labor costs for fast food and services are rock bottom.
Where do the millionaires on Trump's cabinet store their money? Because I know those greedy assholes dont want to loose their own bucks.
Hey, I was driving home and I saw a mcmantion. Its going to be awesome when I buy it next week! So many loans! So little time!
Can someone please tell me which country has US-style nonprofit banks (credit unions) where I can store hundreds of thousands of dollars without monthly fees?
Everybody got a mattress?
I also hear coin hoards were once popular.
Of course, you could just invest in cheese.
coin hoards
Nickles would probably be the best bet right now.
Destabilize?
No, this is far worse. Big banks will just take your money. Credit Unions? I have no fucking idea.
I also can't just walk into my bank and pull out $10k without raising all sorts of questions and concerns.
Jesus fuck.
You should be able to pull out $10k fairly easily. When you go to spend $10k in cash, that's where you'll get a ton of resistance.
So keep bank receipts for large cash withdrawals.
When gambling on the failure of stocks is allowed you get stupid people trying to tear the whole thing down over a quick buck smh.
Might as well take a gamble and put all my money in bitcoin if it’s not FDIC insured
Its not much of a gamble historically, as long as you're willing to hold it for >5 years --the same advice holds for the stock market.
Now that is the steal of the century if he pulls it off.
Everyone ready for 1+ trillion to go missing?
Jesus fucking Christ on a stick CAN WE HAVE AT LEAST ONE YEAR WHERE THERE ISN'T SOME MAJOR FIXKING BULLSHIT. 😡
2029 looking a lot like 1929.
Just where the fuck will people do their banking without FDIC?
I saw that asshat Andreesen lying his fucking ass off on Rogan about how the poor little tweedums on the right were being "debanked" because of "free speech", but not anyone else.
Meanwhile, what the hell would you call something like this?
The right has people within it that are just so insane that I really do think some would withdrawal their money from the bank, and set all their own cash on fire if they thought it would pwn teh libz.
I would just avoid ALL US banks. Canada has CDIC and our future Trumpian PM hasn't been paid yet to kill it.
US stores don't care where the money comes from so that could be an option.
Do y'all have any banks that hold USD? Or are you recommending that I convert my life savings to CAD and transfer to a Canadian bank with CDIC?
Offshore banking: no longer just for the rich!
Canada and the US share a couple shores, so it’s ok
We should start this rumor. It'll totally own me. I'll be so subservient if they burn all their money. 😉
Places like cash app and venmo... where you can have predation turned up to 11.
Exactly. Maybe that's the cui bono here - some asshole in donvict's circle stands to gain a lot of money. I hate the overuse of those apps, by the way. People always telling me to venmo them. I often try to just hand them cash. I hate having some middle man take 3% just to move some bits; absurd.
Uhh, you can use Venmo without losing money. It only costs extra if you use the instant withdrawal functionality. Just wait the 2-3 days to get your money.
That said, I'd rather get cash as well. I don't like Venmo but sometimes it's the much easier way. Such as when people live in other states.
How do you move money in and out of Venmo without any fees? I get a 3% fee if I transfer from credit card. I see you can deposit a check and pay 1%.
I just transfer from/to a bank account. That's free.
The way you're doing it is basically having them spot you the money until your payment clears. There is a risk, and they charge for that.
A MAGAt would eat his own shit if he knew a WoKe LibRuL would have to smell it
Exactly this.
