most of our other accounts.

5. Yes.. Move your $'s to Credit Unions
away from Wall Street fat cat banks..

Why continue to support their lifestyle?

Or, move your money into a small hometown bank.

Needless to say if the American people were to move their money away from Wall Street banks it would have a profound effect.

6. How can you move your money to a CU
if you are not working. I have a large savings account but am currently not working. :shrug:

8. I'm not working and my money is in a credit union
both savings and checking. It depends on the credit union. Shop around. Also, you can put your money in a small community bank if the credit unions don't want you.

9. Check around for local CUs
BECU only requires $5 to start an account.

Give it a look.

7. But I can't.
Since it's ALREADY in a credit union.

11. I know! Mine is too.
I almost wish I could move it to a credit union, though, just to spite the banks...
