Really???? Thanks!!!

Off Topic

So I got this ad today in my e-mail.  We have a Capital One Online savings account and we like it, but this seems really really stupid.

Ryan,
get an extra
$25*

Saving for tomorrow gets you a bonus in the bank.

Earn $25 by increasing your account balance by $10,000 or more by August 31, 2008. Why didn't we think of this sooner?

Find out more about this special offer for our customers.

*You are eligible for this promotion if you receive this offer and had an open Capital One Direct Banking account on June 20, 2008. Enrollment is automatic. You will receive a $25 interest credit if on August 31, 2008 you have increased your net balance by $10,000 over your June 20, 2008 balance.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Really????  Do people that actually have 10k floating around really care about $25 dollars?

Good Day!
Ryan

 
Yeah...this seems really stupid. I wouldn't care about 25 bucks if I had 10k in there.

Well, there's that, but then there's the other thing...

If you have $10,000 laying about, WHY THE HELL IS IT IN A SAVINGS ACCT?! That kind of scratch can work much harder for you somewhere else.
