I’ve always been really apprehensive about using any sort of bank where I can’t walk in the door and rip someone a new orifice for screwing with my money.
To me its one of the finer things in life, like getting a free extra shot of espresso with your latte, or finding out that Vin Diesel has a thing for brunette writers with big asses (call me!).
However, I’ve heard really good things about Smarty Pig. And as an added bonus, the pig is significantly less creepy than that Feed the Pig guy, who quite honestly looks like he’d stab you in the neck given the chance.
Not only is it less creepy, it’s a nice way to save some cash, FDIC insured, and helps you save up for something specific. Looking to save cash for a wedding, TV, vacation, or bail? Let them help. They also let you make your account public so that others can help you reach your goal.
All we wanted was a way to save money for a dream vacation — a dedicated savings account that we would tap into right before we were leaving town…. Surely there was a financial services company out there that specialized in saving up for something specific? A vacation? An anniversary gift? A flat-screen TV? Holiday gifts?
So we set out to create an innovative, on-line resource that would help us, and others, save for specific items and events. A safe and secure site where savings accounts are goal oriented.
It’s one way to get a long over due vacation.
And in this economy, saving is a good thing.
