E Warren, because there are other threads about her candidacy
but her policy knowledge on these financial issues is so important
I remember the times when you could get charged an overdraft fee and an insufficient funds fee and keep getting charged ever day... and a fee for not keep $5000 in checking or credits cards charging you a late fee then an over the limit fee
Obama's appointment of Warren shut that down
I remember some people getting clowned here for posting about using payday loans, I used them and that payday loan fee was often lower than paying bank fees though many ethical lenders got shut down as well...
I remember nyc acting like monthly metrocards were so cost efficient not realizing that amount is some peoples whole paycheck, (actually still happening) my favorite metrocard was like $52 for a two-week unlimited which was discontinued and never reconsidered, tourists liked the all-day $7 pass
basically, it is expensive to be broke and the shutdown proved that many are broke without that next paycheck...
and living beyond your means in the 20teens is survival not always irresponsible
even W Fargo made amends with overdraft rewind
as a cynical genxer, I appreciate the millennial efforts - afterpay WP mattresses in a box levelup stichfix earnin (and all of the Black people who thought of this stuff first)
lastly, you are a GOOD friend, not an enabler...
