INTEREST-ING STUFF....

When you put your money in the bank, the bank doles out next to nothing in terms of interest on your dollars if it's in a normal account.

When you take a loan from the bank, the interest rate that stares you in the face is upwards of 3%.

In a news wire that just came in, Japan's finance minister Sadakazu Tanigaki said 'zero interest rates are desirable'.

Now, that's something I wish could work both ways. That would definitely bring smiles all the way to the bank and a spring in my step too.
