or the blind man has some explaining to do.

if this goes to court, are the " residents" going to testify thet the man was blind?

the tribune should say the residents claimed he was blind. [Or alleged]

once you experience this, you will not miss having to drive around town to pay utility bills. the electronic records are better kept in case they get misplace somewhere (it happens).

you can also call the banks 24/7 if you have questions or someone locks in your password.

Even when hurricane mathew hit, and i did not have the internet for weeks, i used telephone banking to pay all my bills.

but business accouints do not have atm cards, so we need to deposit.

sadly, there are still businesses around town that do not accept debit cards, or charge more if you use a card. i avoid such places.

how many of the pictured above use online banking or atms?

whenever there is a fire in the shantytown, it becomes 'gentrified'. some nicer homes are being built there.

in the shantytown, there are restaurants, hotels and gambling houses.

Money orders have always been expensive, even when done throught the post office, i recall doing some back in the 1980s.

Paypal and amazon disclose the conversion rate and they are 4.9 cents on the dollar. so you do avoid some fees if you have a credit card facility.

I have a credit card at 10% per year and another one with no annual fee.

I just pay it off every month.

couries, plus these costs, still beaqt traveling costs to florida..

if you like lifetime contracts such as the one at the bridge authority, you will love the hereditary ones at UB.

If a bahamian walks off the street to apply, he needs a PHD.

But, they find a way to hire "instructors" with fewer qualifications who are the children of retiring COB faculty and then let them upgrade themselves to PHd level.

when they retire, they will pilot charter planes to andros.

ssome people look good on paper, but still are incompetent in their positions.
It is the Peter Principle at work.

I would never call attention to my PLP affiliation, because that might have been the grounds for my appointment in the first place, and if i were to leave the postion, i would have a hard time fifinding another job anyway.

no styrofoam?

what are people going to eat out of?

people do not buy crockery because they hate to wash dishes.

#The Auditor-General this week warned of “an underlying tone of fraud” at the Post Office Savings Bank, with customers able to deposit and withdraw sums more than 100 times’ greater than legal limits.

#Terrance Bastian, detailing the findings from a more than three-year investigation by his staff, found that the Post Office Savings Bank suffered from “significant internal control weaknesses” relating to the acceptance of deposits and account withdrawals.

#In particular, he zeroed in on how one account holder was able to withdraw more than $923,000 from the Post Office Savings Bank over the 15-months to April 8, 2015, even though the law and ‘Savings Bank Rules’ stipulate that account balances cannot exceed $6,000 in any one year.

#Then there was the “inexplicable” case of another Post Office Savings Bank client who withdrew some $668,553 more than he had deposited over the three years between May 2012 and April 2015, even though the law, again, prohibited credit in excess of $6,000.

#Mr Bastian, in a report tabled in Parliament this week, said this particular client had deposited $613,915 with the Post Office Savings Bank over that three-year period, yet had withdrawn a collective $1.282 million from their five separate accounts.

#“The amount of approximately $669,000 withdrawn from the Post Office Savings Bank by this beneficial owner in excess of deposits held is inexplicable,” the Auditor-General found.

#“This shows a breakdown in management’s oversight in carrying out the mandate of the Post Office Savings Bank and safeguarding customer assets. Based on this discovery, it appears that there is an underlying tone of fraud.”
