You got lucky. I assumed may posted balance was the same as my actual one. So by the time I got the little mailer telling me I had over-drafted, a week later, I had been charged the $30 something overdraft fee and an additional 20 - 30 bucks a day. By the time I found out l had already been charged over $200.

Thats just one way they get you. Its an expensive lesson to learn.

Watch your ass Squirtle. It was my responsibility to keep track of my account. Don't be careless. It'll cost you.

In Canada we have no such thing, at least not saving accounts (which can be linked to paypal). But then we have only 3-4 bank types where the US has tons of them.

The pre paid visa sounds good, I think banks even have their own version now, if not money mart and such do. Sounds like a good way for you to go.

they defenatly steal right from under our noses with our own money,

First thing one should understand when starting off in the world. Never make any assumptions. Cooperations have one goal, in fact they are required to maximize profits. This means they will take advantage of anyone in any situation. You will never be able to understand your contract as it is designed to confuse and intimidate. Most don't even bother reading them just for these two reasons. Banks and lenders will always mislead you often if not always lead you to make the most irresponsible deal in terms of your best interests.

You have almost no rights in the financial world. There are two sets of rules, the rules you follow and pay for and the rules they break and profit from.

You can rage against the machine and complain about how unfair it is all day long, it will never make any difference. We are literally owed by the banks.

Understand this and make informed decisions as-to your finances. Never live beyond your means. Make payments on time and never barrow more than you can afford and at an interest you can afford. Most don't realize just how much interests adds up over the years. Take out a $20,000.00 loan today and in 20 years after making the minimum monthly payment, you'll have paid that and more back to the lender and still have 20 grand or more left to pay.

All this coupled with the worst economy since the great depression 1929 - 1940, you will face obstacles many of us didn't have to deal with when we were starting off.

Be careful Squirtel. But most of all be smart.

SO right, man!
That's one of the best of the amazing IM2 comic series figs.
Fellow Arker Rodimus has a Stane head for that so you can make the infamous "I lost so I'm blowing my own head off with my repulsors" scene from Iron Man #200.

It's black in the movie-

That head, I'm almost certain, is from an upcoming Lady Jaye head from GI Joe: Retaliation.
I mean...it looks nothing like the actress!

Some new MU appreciation, courtesy of ashketch and eBay. Fav new figs would have to be LUB Black Widow (she just looks better and more comic like than the old one or the Avengers one), and the Sentry (minus the lipstick). I also really dig Captain Britain alot more than I thought I would, wish I read more comics with him. Doctor Doom was disappointing though, I like him as a character, but the mold is lacking on possability.

Anyway, some posing appreciation:

Thank you for the comparison shot KB. Hmmm...not sure I'm going to pick up these packs or not. Not liking the colors and Juggy's head looks odd.

Man, that Colussus and Iron Man both look terrible! They look unfinished- like the factory did not finish painting and shading them...

Mandarin looks the best of them, but read and yellow are just NOT his colors- it's almsot like seeing cap with the snowboard or spidey with a safari suit.

Onyx productons is coming out with a Juggy and removable helmet- looks cool to me.
Does it big anyone that this line of Comic Packs has NO NEW SCULPTS?
I mean, the prior wave had new heads and accessories- that really got me to buy them. Each CP fig (except lame Iron Fist) was a unique fig, not just a repaint.

This wave...I'm skipping the whole thing.

Dammit, stuff starts coming out after I can't actually afford anything. Awesome timing.

My advice, don't go with a bank. Go with a credit union. I don't have to pay for a checking, and I get 6 automatic transfers from savings a month to cover accidental overdrafts - of course, I don't have to make use of that because I keep a close eye on things, but still. Credit unions get you lower interest rates, but they're not for-profit so you get treated better.

Well theres alot of spiderman not made. Like the new scarlet spider the noir spiderman cosmic and big time. I say big time because i enjoy the black and green suit but really tierd of the red and blue.The reason I started collecting Mu is because of the 1st spiderman. So much detail on the figure. But since the sentry two pack they messed him up. I like it and then again its terrible compaird to the detailed one. I dont want to hate spiderman because im having to buy every figure to have a complete collection. If they make a cosmic spidey were going to get cosmic hulk as well.

Well i like the face juggy and i dont care about colx they have to fine away to burn threw the rest of that scopt. The mandy I dont care for just painted red still bad figure but i liked the 1st cen ironman one of my fav ones. I think juggy is more detailed also. As for the hulk and wolvy take away detail from hulk its ok and f wolvy tired of his m****r f**k*n a** showing up every other figure. Sorry it had to be said.

Mannnn, please don't take offense to this, your siggy is freakin' huuuuge. Stretches out the web browser on my smartphone like crazay. It's well above the sig limits on here, which are like what? 200x500 pixels and no bigger than 40kb? I don't know how a mod hasn't deleted it yet as I've seen some on here with sigs barely over the limit get replaced with a mod message.

Now, I'm not the sig police, but how about I resize it for ya? I'm a sig maker, been making them for like eight years.

I was even thinking about setting up shop here and workin' on sigs for small donations or toys, not sure if there'd be interest here for that. A show of hands would be nice, let me know what you guys think.

That sig is tiny its only huge if you click on it to expand it. What browser are you using?

Doesn't matter which browser I'm using, it does shrink down, once it comes up as it's original size. Though in general, when I'm posting from home where satellite internet is all we have cuz it's a desert, some sigs slow down web pages. 1andonly5711's doesn't for me, but other sites it does, so that's why I'm more than happy to help resize and flat out create sigs that're within reason. Some boards I visits, dear god, it's a freakin' chore scrolling down while reading a thread.

This goes for everyone, if ya'd like a sig with your username on it and favorite images, I wouldn't mind hooking you up, I enjoy sig making, just ask and ye shall recieve.

that would be cool but its very small on my comp its i think 150 x 175 not sure but its not big

but ur sig is bigger then mine

I wish I had that XMO Iceman... I got the MU X-factor one, which is nice too, but it doesn't have the cool ice slide that you can place on top of Young Justice Aqualad's (which I saw a TJ Maxx today) Ice accessory that he comes with.

That no helmet Juggernaut does look nice, but damn... that Colossus is pitiful. It is amazing what some simple metal wash paint will do for a fig.

Yeah, on my smartphone it hardly ever gets to original size, stays at 150x175, just my home where the shit internet kicks in. It's the stretching, sometimes it stays at it's original, not sure why.

Made this for ya:

Within sig limitations = 200x500;40KB

well i really dont see why you have such a problem with it its a cool pic anyone is welcome to argu

thats cool thanks alot

Not really a big deal tho, haha, just minor inconvenience. Some other sites I frequent will make your head spin though, on a broadband connection they slow everything to a stand still. That shit should be illegal.

well hows that thanks alot

Greatly appreciated, man. You're the greatest! Kinda bro-love you now.

haha you made it so i should be saying that

I try. I envy some of you guys with hyper fast interweb, Around here, we can't even have Cable TV.

Should anyone else want a sig, here's my past work you can look at: I do stuff... - The Green Lantern Corps Message Board

Happy to hook you up.
