[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP ~ it's a difference from when I grew up and maybe you, and from what I also thought was acceptable practices. I cringe at the idea of corporate sponsorships, just cringe. It is accepted as ordinary in some parts of the country, some political leaning areas, and much more accepted than in past decades. Most disturbing is the number of people who don't give it any thought at all and can't fathom a counter argument.[/quote] Funny that your reaction is to “cringe, just cringe” and are “disturbed” by others who don’t see the cringeworthyness of a credit union/neighbor talking about probably saving money or compound interest or interest rates. What is the scary cringy counter argument? That our 13 yr olds might want to open a bank accountant? That aside, chances are that if those kids are not currently NFCU members, they won’t qualify to open an account at NFCU anyway. I think you need to check your knee jerk reaction. [/quote] Also, just to be clear, the assembly wasn't about financial literacy or anything educational. It was to promote the NFCU and Thoreau partnership and to talk about the things NFCU does for Thoreau students. [/quote]
