I'm too poor to buy cheap, so I save for the best.
I never understood why anyone would pay $5.00 for a tape measure that will last a year over $20.00 for a tape measure that will last 20 years.
The same goes for everything. Take care of what you have and get the best when you need something new.
I know that's not what this article is about but the lesson here is, "I'm too poor to buy cheap"
EDIT: as to the article, banks are extortionist. Say your paycheck is from 5th 3rd but you bank at Cheviot Savings and Loan that 15 miles away and you need to get your paycheck cashed now. 5th 3rd makes you pay $5.00 to get your money out of their bank because you don't have an account there. That should be illegal.
