My disdain for mega banks knowns no end

In case you weren't aware of JPMorgan Chase's history and their involvement in making World History.

Wait, did Chase actually say that? I thought it was a parody. Holy shit.

2019, back in #avocadotoast days. When apparently we wasted our money on extravagances like "not the cheapest fruit/vegetables". Which wasn't even the case. We literally didn't even do that, we 100% had to eat the cheapest fruit/vegetable, if we were lucky enough that any fruit or vegetable met our budget. They were so out of touch that even their attempt to find a minor extravangance they thought we could afford to waste money on but shouldn't, was inaccessible.

So follow my logic here, as it's rather complicated. If I eat the food in the fridge, there will be no more food in the fridge.

Anyway been poor has nothing to do with me spending money and everything to do with me not getting enough money. Rich people spend much more money than I do and yet they're fine, so clearly the spending of the money isn't actually the problem.

Their response:

“Our #MondayMotivation is to get better at #MondayMotivation tweets. Thanks for the feedback Twitter world.”

So… they’re essentially just saying that they promise to make better tweets to remedy the situation.

eat the food that's already in the fridge

That is such a perfect crystalline out-of-touch rich-person take that it has to be a bait. Right? ...Right?

billionaires tell common people to not have coffee

worst bank ive ever had the displeasure of using, they'd take a $12 "service fee" out of my account that I was using for savings for not having direct deposit set up for it, while I was struggling financially. way to kick someone while they're down.

Credit union gang where you at?

corporate twitter accounts suck ass

I know quite a couple of people making about 150k+/year and they live paycheck to paycheck. They spend money like it's nothing and can't save any money. This one person had to move back in with their parents after they lost their job after 10 years. They were making at least 150k/year for ten years and had no savings. They didn't even have any debt. They just spent every dollar they made. There are a lot of people like that and I would imagine the tweet is referring to those personality types. Like I know this one guy that took an Uber just to go 2 blocks.

Chase has apparently never read the famous work of literature, "Old Mother Hubbard." But then it may be too difficult for them.

Okay, but outside the context, this is good advice.

Chase's bank account: Use that building you already have on Park Ave

Poor people do have less money to waste

BOOM! ROASTED!

How is it the bank's fault if your balance is low? I don't get what's the point of this. Your balance is low because your spending matches or exceeds your income.

So across all consumers and small businesses, Chase has 86 million customers. If the CEO distributed all his pay, everyone gets $0.14. That's not going to solve anyone being poor, and not going to help you if you have shitty spending habits.

For all the shitty things banks do, knocking them for actually advocating someone good for once seems counter-productive.
