Here I sit, cleaning up paperwork and the thought occurs: Banks charge $3 per month to send account holders paper statements. They do everything in their power to limit access to paper records. However, if sending me a paper statement is so damn expensive why must I be constantly barraged with slick marketing for credit cards and other offers from the very same banks and their affiliates? The shiny envelopes and preprinted forms (with some of my personal information) have to cost much more than a simple paper statement sent to me once a month.t
Is keeping me in debt their m.o.? Yes!
