      @@Alexedmartin Generally, investing requires higher knowledge. For this reason, It's important to have a solid support structure (financial consultant) to guide you through especially in asset picking. I operate with (Regina Louise Collaro) an investment advisor who partners with a licensed wealth management firm. For the record, the experience has been the best for my finance.She is quite popular for her services so you might have heard of her.
      She made me financially stable investing through her help, now I earn on a monthly basis through her passive income strategy... So I’ll advise you do get a good Investment advisor for yourself.

I can get in and out in 5 minutes, I always have access to my money with the ATM's and they know my name, since it isn't a large bank. Just to name a few, their interest rates, for home and auto loans are much better than the big banks too !

      Well, would you really fully 100% trust any major bank? We must not forget what happened during the 2008-9 financial collapse. Not to mention how recently, Wells Fargo is being slammed for creating false accounts without letting their customers know. Also, Deutsche Bank admitted, along with other banks, that they were rigging the price of gold, earlier this year.

      There *is* a clear bias toward credit unions, but the facts speak for themselves. Banks are for profit. They play with your money trying to generate more for their shareholders. Credit unions serve their members first and foremost.

    At a credit union in Thunder Bay On an individual handed a girl $8,000.00 cash to deposit. She took the money and went to the back room and then came back a couple minutes later and said $200.00 is missing. That money was counted about two hundred times before the deposit. She stole the $200.00 or robbed the customer.

    my credit union screwed up my mortgage loan, fudged the paperwork, misplaced payments, among numerous other things. Paid my mortgage every single month but they orchestrated all of our payments to make it look as if I never paid even though I have copies of checks to them which they cashed for all payments & now they're trying to foreclose on me. they're not much different than regular banks, if they screw up they'll try to cover their ass no matter what.

    0:12 - You have actually 3 choices, not just 2:
    1. Bank, 2. Building society, 3. Credit union
    I've got my current accounts with banks and one building society. Unfortunately, that's the only building society offering current accounts. There is one more, but it's only limited to certain region and only for local people. Same with credit unions. If they were offering current accounts, I would open a new one, but they don't. I think there is some in London, that also offers current accounts, but again, only for local people.
