Well, they didn't have the guy succeeding in a big way like buying an island, etc. Or implied success like the old E*trade one where the guy asks about the retirement plan, clicks twice, and has a huge yacht...

The emphasis is on "it's 8.00...my old broker would charge me 200.00 for the trade"...

At least it is better. And it has some cute elements like the guy xeroxing his face and the old ladies saying "he's a mess"...it makes me chuckle.

the others are so totally absurd, they irritate me.

That kid is some type of performer (as opposed to ordinary actor). I understand they didn't write any script or prepare storyboards, which is highly unusual considering the cost of production. They just asked him to ad lib with the older actor after giving them a list of benefits they'd like to cover.
