I was appalled by this statement by Brett Arends in the WSJ:
This has got to be totally false. I've always had free banking since 1973 at many different banks over the years. "most people"? "hundreds of dollars a year"?
Maybe he means paying high fees for investing in load mutual funds at the bank? But that still can't be "most people".
Has anyone here every paid hundreds of dollars a year to their bank?
I'm waiting for one of the reader comments to suggest move number 11:
