Move Your Money

February 28th 2010 16:45
The Move Your Money craze was started by Arianna Huffington because she was upset at the big bonuses paid out to CEOs at the larger banks. The cause was also taken up by those on the right mad at the banks who took taxpayer bailouts. This made for a strange partnership but has been gaining strength since its inception.


I use a smaller bank for two reasons: because one is close to me and they pay me interest on my checking account.

Before you "move your money" to a smaller bank do a little research and make sure that they are in good standing and are government insured.

Here is a website to help you find the closest banks to you.

It just proves that people can be "bi-partisan" sometimes, doesn't it!

When we got our savings account, it was with a nationally popular bank. We thought there would be a branch anywhere we might move. Wrong. We never lived in a town with that bank! Now, the nearest one is a couple of hundred miles away. Our savings is local, fortunately.
