My sister became a bank teller at age 17. I am 16 (2 months short of 17) and was wondering if most common banks hire at 16, or is it just a waste of my time calling each bank? I don’t want to feel stupid if they say “Sorry hun you need to be older.” And I’m talking about branches such as PNC, COMMERCE, and VALLEY NATIONAL. So if anyone has some insight, let me know!

If the UK government did nationalize several British banks, what would happen to the shareholders?

If shares are not suspended, are they likely to increase or decrease?

I’m thinking they would increase….

The banks have been betting big on stocks, bonds, commodities and other assets. Trade gains will only last so long.

With all the banking problems I want to make sure which bank has the highest rating and it not making sub-prime loans. I know Bank of America made $2 billion dollars worth of bad loans. E - Trade and Countrywide, Citi Corp, and other banks have made billions of follars worth bad sub-prime home loans. Which major bank is not making sub-prime loans and is in good financial shape? That is who I want to bank with.

I hear that if a bank goes under other banks will buy these mortgages. But with so many mortgages exceeding values of homes, many banks might not want to buy the mortgages. What would happen if a bank goes under, and no one wants to buy their crappy mortgages?

A Japanese friend of mine had his account frozen in Japan, because he was under investigation for fraud. He was clearly innocent and the judge cleared his case and he wasn’t charged. The bank refused to unfreeze his account, and his lawyer was planning to sue them. The lawyer hired a private investigater and they found that no money was left in the account. It has been 10 months now that all this bank and police mess has been going on. As this is a Japanese system and a Japanese citizen, I just don’t understand how the bank could withhold his account 5 months after the Judge cleared his case.

How do you fight a banking regime like the reserve bank and other banking instutions that do nothing but take ?Do you think that a national vote against the politically elected governor of the reserve bank will help ?I think it could help everyone with a mortgage in australian ?The vote is stronger than the government and the interest rate can allow australian citizens money in there pockets and what do you think ?I think australia needs new public speakers to get the message to the not so educated and working class that feed the business , commom wealth and states of australia ?Do you think the ceasars of this period in time need to be shaken from there tall throwns?

Salvime asked:


I have a few years of retail banking and banking call center experience. About two years I went through a hardship which really damaged my credit. I know if I apply to a bank that does a credit check I won’t get hired. Does anyone know of a specific bank in Los Angeles that won’t run credit?
