It's A Not So Wonderful Life When the Bank Has You By the Short Hairs

I picked up on the Move Your Money movement after ABC did a piece on it. By that time, we had already moved our money out of one major bank and one financial institution. Pretty soon we will pay off our credit cards and cut them up. I refuse to be dependent on the banks and the card companies and the financial institutions who care so little about people other than those in their echelon. It's a disgrace.

I first wrote about this movement on my other blog. Here's an expanded version of the video done for the movement.

Why You Should Move Your Money!

I'm picking up the thread of another post I wrote for "Empty Nest Evolution", my other blog.  It concerns the Move Your Money movement.  CBS Sunday Morning produced an interesting feature today and I thought I'd follow up to see what's been happening to the movement since I first heard about it on ABC's World News Tonight.



My husband and I have moved the majority of our money to a credit union and a private financial institution.  We've encouraged our sons to move their money and I'm telling my friends and colleagues the same thing.  This feature covers the finer points of why you're better off in a smaller institution.
