• Pointless...

    "I didn't really get to buy anything... My tax refund was direct deposited into my sister's bank account because I didn't have an account at that time and I didn't want to wait for a check and then pay a ridiculous fee to cash it. SO, when the rebate check was deposited into her account, she was so overdrawn AND had written some checks for bills that my check covered her bills and brought her account to a positive balance. She's given me some money here and there over the past 2 months, but she still owes me $600... which I'll probably never see. Lesson Learned - Never trust family! :)"

  • I know what you mean. That was incredibly unfair of your sister. I hope you get paid back.

  • Let me get this straight. You're 27, a payroll administrator, you don't have a bank account, you sent your money to a relative's account and she has been very slow in giving it to you. Are you sure you are in the right employment position. If I may be so dumb as to suggest GET A CHECKING ACCOUNT AND LEARN TO USE IT!! I have one brother I would trust with my money and another NEVER. A lesson learned.

  • Question 1: Why do Mexicans not have bank accounts?

    Answer 1: Mexican banks are incredibly corrupt.

    Question 2: Why do some Americans not have bank accounts?

    Answer 2: They are starting to discover what the Mexicans have known for years.

  • Excuse me Dani? I do have a checking account and know how to use one. I didn't have one at that time; is that a crime? Or are you suggesting that anyone who doesn't have a bank account is an idiot? Many people choose not to have a bank account because of specific personal reasons. I have been with my company for six years and I am the most valuable employee in my branch office. And besides, what does having a bank account have to do with your type of employment? And exactly what lesson did YOU learn? Maybe you should think before you comment on someone's post because it looks to me like you need a lesson in grammar! And yes, you may be SO DUMB!! If I may be obtuse, your obvious lack of intelligence is quite compensated by your genuine disdain.

  • I love this site, but the line above the name is confusing. In response, you could have opened a checking account with that check or could have gone to a check cashing service and gotten your money right away. But since you did not explain your "specific personal reasons" for not having a checking account, and I don't want to know about that, you really got what you deserved. You then asked what lesson did I learn-simple I put it in my checking account and paid for some house repairs. Lesson learned. And no my grammer is not that bad.

  • OMFG, you are an a$$hole. After reading all this, I realize that "bigun" is a big prick that thinks he knows what people deserve. Who would deserve having money taken from them? What did she do to deserve that? Sure she could've taken the check to any check cashing store and then paid an ungodly amount to cash the damn thing. I think initially it was a smart idea. Unfortunately it turned out bad and she didn't receive all the money. Could've happened to anyone! For you to comment as ignorantly as you did, well that just shows how much of a thoughtless idiot you are. By the way, your grammar is bad. [grammer – is spelled GRAMMAR.] Go back to school you effin moron.

    One more question: What lesson did you learn by putting your check into an account and paying for some house repairs? None, because there was no lesson there to be learned… it’s just something you did!! Bad comparison you effin retard!!!!!!!
