Re <<What assholes>>

good observation.

we have been migrating our banking from western operated bank here in HK to China operated bank here in same HK, from where our funds are mistreated by folks asking too many senseless questions to where the banker fills out regulatory-required but senseless forms and politely calls, 'we have filled out the forms for your account. When is it convenient for you to come and sign them?'

example of western Neo-banking ... ('why are you transferring this amount to that account?' - 'because that account I use to buy gold' - 'why do you buy gold?' - 'because I want to be able to keep on buying things at the same rate') even when I transfer money from own account to same-name account at subsidiary of the f*cking bank ...

Neo values vs traditional values, the battle rages across the entire universe, and there is only one right way, I suspect, but remain agnostic, and thus migrating as opposed to moving account

Moving from BoA to Wells Fargo to JPM to Citi to ... SVA bank is possibly futile and definitely tiring

Time likely better spent lobbying your Congressman ... at least get served coffee if get served coffee :0)

Yes, the system is f*cked, and not amenable to being unf*cked, because that is what ass*oles do; 'they' double-down
