If you are like me, you think a lot about the economy these days. I wonder if we will ever be back on track. Like my friends, I wonder if investments will come back because we seniors counted on that money to help us live a good life.
It has been very discouraging to see that many large corporations have people at the top who having been receiving bonuses even when the companies are doing badly. In other words, they are being rewarded for bad performance.
So, today, when I opened my mail, I was not feeling too good about a department store that would cut a check for one cent (yes, $0.01) and mail it at a cost of 35.7 cents on a U.S. postage meter.
So, we overpaid our account by one penny. No need to go into "overdrive" and refund that to me. It would have been fine to leave it on account for me.
So, now, I can truly get that answer we used to joke about many years ago, when I take this check to the credit union,
"How would you like that: heads or tails?"
