Things I learned today (Part 1)

I posted this before. Amazingly all Credit Unions aren’t the same. They don’t charge the same interest. You don’t have to go to your local one. Shop around.

Amazingly? All banks don’t charge the same interest either FYI.
You can’t go to any credit union either. You have to be within the common bond. But it can be flexible enough in cities and if you work in the common bond that will do also. Some careers such as Guard, teacher etc will have their own credit unions as well which you can join once you are a part of the profession

What’s a common bond?

Hatred of (insert club).

Michael Jordan makes $100 million a year in royalties for his tackies.

I was wrong with the words/line from the Waterboys famed tune ‘Bang on the ear’ recorded in Spiddal, Galway.

“It started up in FIFE, (not fights) it ended up in tears”. This makes Mick Puck an even better song carver than I gave him credit for. A small learning that you might mock me for… but if I correct one of you it will be all worthwhile.
