Bank Of Les

Continuing on from My last blog on the theme of banking. I would like to propose what a bank should look like ... 'The Bank of Les' ... if I may.




Here it is!!! The 'Bank of Les'!! Nothing fancy, just a building to gather inside to collect or give out money. We don't need some 4 story brick structure, no 10X20 foot lit up sign to tell you the temperature. Just the basics to do business. This way you make more interest on YOUR money, and isn't that what a bank if for in the first place?




And here are some folding chairs I found laying around in the basement for our lobby. They aren't quite as nice as the plush leather couches you get to sit on at most banks, but then again, we're talking about a place to sit your ass for for a couple minutes ... how important is that?



Hopefully you don't have to wait to long, but if you do, could I interest you in a cup of coffee? I found this at a garage sale for only a buck!! Yeah, I know, it's a little old and dirty .. but we're not in the coffee business, we're in the banking business!!




Please come over and have a seat at my desk. Do you like it? I found this at a government auction for only $4.00. It's a hell-of-a-lot cheaper than your typical bank desk, which costs well over $500.00, but then all desks just kinda hold papers and stuff, so it's really not that important is it?




If your fortunate enough to have some money to put in savings, I'll be happy to store it here in My great great grandfathers safe which was handed down to Me.




And for an added extra, I took a picture of our new heating system we had installed last winter. A big pot belly stove running on free dead trees lying around. Keeps the bank at a toasty 80 degrees all winter.

Now I might be the lone person with this opinion, but if they really had a bank out there that was like this ... I would be the first one in line to do business with them! It's not about image, or the fresh donuts and coffee, or the silk drapes, or teak hardwood cabinets. It's about making the most out of MY money! And when your living at your palace you call a bank all day, do you really think that MY money is the highest priority to YOU? I think not.
