Why Your Checking Account May No Longer Be Free

Why Your Checking Account May No Longer Be Free

Ana Altchek  Fri, July 5, 2024    Business Insider

Chase Bank's boss warned that new federal fee caps could make everyday banking more expensive.

Marianne Lake said the bank is planning to pass the pain of their lost profits on to customers.

Some new costs may be placed on now-free services like checking accounts and financial tools.

Everyday banking might be about to get more expensive for consumers.

Marianne Lake, the CEO of consumer and community banking at Chase Bank, said federal regulations to cap overdraft and late fees would take a bite out of the company's bottom line.  And she warned that making up that loss would be passed on to consumers, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.

Why Your Checking Account May No Longer Be Free

Ana Altchek  Fri, July 5, 2024    Business Insider

Chase Bank's boss warned that new federal fee caps could make everyday banking more expensive.

Marianne Lake said the bank is planning to pass the pain of their lost profits on to customers.

Some new costs may be placed on now-free services like checking accounts and financial tools.

Everyday banking might be about to get more expensive for consumers.

Marianne Lake, the CEO of consumer and community banking at Chase Bank, said federal regulations to cap overdraft and late fees would take a bite out of the company's bottom line.  And she warned that making up that loss would be passed on to consumers, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.

Lake said the changes would be "broad, sweeping, and significant," the report said.

Some of those costs would be tacked onto services that have been free so far, like checking accounts and financial planning tools, the report said.

Business Insider reviewed a Chase presentation that covered the expected impact of proposed regulations. The presentation estimated that two out of three consumers would have to pay a fee for checking accounts if the cap went through.

Lake also said those impacted will be the ones "who can least afford to be" and credit access will also be more challenging.

Some of the regulations include a proposed $8 cap on late credit card payment fees and a $3 cap for overdrafting bank accounts. The limit is part of President Joe Biden's crackdown on hidden fees.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau estimated that about 45 million people are charged credit card late fees annually, and the change could save those people up to $220 a year.

JPMorgan Warns 86 Million Customers They Might Have To Start Paying For Their Bank Accounts

Chris Morris   Fri, July 5, 2024

Chase Bank customers could see some additional charges in the not too distant future.

The Wall Street Journal reports the country’s biggest retail bank is warning that it might begin charging customers for their accounts. That would impact some 86 million customers.

The potential charges, says Marianne Lake, CEO of consumer and community banking at JPMorgan, are a result of new regulatory rules that cap overdraft and late fees. Lake says Chase will be passing along those increased expenses to customers, which would put an end to now-free services such as checking accounts and wealth management tools. And she says she expects other banks will follow suit.

7 Expenses That Will Drain Your Retirement Savings the Fastest

7 Expenses That Will Drain Your Retirement Savings the Fastest

Casey Bond  Fri, July 5, 2024

You’ve spent a good portion of your life working and saving for retirement. Once you reach that milestone, you want to feel confident that your nest egg is big enough to cover your needs in your golden years.

As you retire, it’s important to anticipate some of the costs eating into your savings. Here are seven expenses that can drain your retirement savings — and how to plan for them.

7 Expenses That Will Drain Your Retirement Savings the Fastest

Casey Bond  Fri, July 5, 2024

You’ve spent a good portion of your life working and saving for retirement. Once you reach that milestone, you want to feel confident that your nest egg is big enough to cover your needs in your golden years.

As you retire, it’s important to anticipate some of the costs eating into your savings. Here are seven expenses that can drain your retirement savings — and how to plan for them.

Healthcare

Even with Medicare, out-of-pocket healthcare expenses can be significant, according to Taylor Kovar, certified financial planner and CEO at The Money Couple and Kovar Wealth Management. “This includes prescriptions, surgeries, and long-term care costs,” said Kovar.

One estimate by HealthView Services Financial finds that a healthy 65-year-old couple who retired in 2021 will likely spend between $156,208 and $1 million on healthcare costs during retirement, depending on where and how long they live.

How To Plan: Kovar said it’s a good idea to have a health savings account (HSA) or a similar fund specifically for medical expenses. “Regularly reviewing your health insurance and considering supplemental insurance can also help mitigate these costs,” he added.

Homeownership

If you own a home, that can be another source of major expenses that eat into retirement funds. “As homes age, significant repairs like roof replacements or plumbing issues become more frequent,” Kovar said. From 2016 through 2020, Americans aged 65 and older spent an average of $16,880 per year on housing-related costs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

How To Plan: Kovar recommends setting aside a home maintenance fund and conducting regular home inspections to help anticipate and spread out these costs.

Inflation

Inflation can significantly impact your future savings, since you’ll need to take larger withdrawals to make up for the higher cost of living, according to Jeff Busch, partner and investment advisor representative at Lift Financial. “This can be particularly troublesome if your portfolio is made up of fixed income strategies that can’t keep up with inflation by increasing income over time,” said Busch.

How To Plan: To mitigate inflation, Busch said you may want to invest a portion of your portfolio in stocks that have historically provided better returns than bonds and cash. In general, he added, maintaining a diversified portfolio can be a big help in the long run.

Adult Children (and Their Children)

From student loans to cell phone bills, many retirees find themselves financially assisting their adult children or even their grandchildren. A study by Merrill Lynch found that in 2018, 79% of parents were providing financial support to their adult children, contributing a combined total of $500 billion annually.

How To Plan: Kovar said it’s essential to set boundaries and have open financial discussions with family to ensure this support doesn’t derail retirement plans.

Member of the Parliamentary Oil and Gas Committee, Zainab Al-Moussawi, revealed today, Thursday, the latest developments in the Oil and Gas Law, while pointing to the impact of Masoud Barzani’s visit to Baghdad on the approval of the law.

Al-Moussawi said in an interview with Al-Eqtisad News: “So far, the draft oil and gas law is almost complete, with a high percentage that may reach 90%, but there are some objections from the Kurds regarding some points, which are summarized in handing over oil imports and exploited and unexploited natural resources to Baghdad, as Erbil refuses to do so.”

She added: "We hope that Masoud Barzani's visit will be the beginning of resolving the crisis of the law and its legislation after an agreement with the political foundations in Baghdad, which is the Coordination Framework, as all political blocs are moving towards legislating the oil and gas law that regulates the country's natural resources."

The member of the Parliamentary Oil Committee explained that "the Oil and Gas Law contributes to exploiting the largest possible amount of undiscovered oil fields and also contributes to achieving self-sufficiency in petroleum derivatives and optimal exploitation of wasted natural resources estimated at hundreds of billions of dollars that contribute to diversifying the state's financial resources."   LINK

Securities Commission: The government has successfully completed the sale of financial bonds

7/3/2024  Baghdad

The Securities Commission confirmed on Wednesday that the government had successfully completed the sale of financial bonds, while indicating that many foreign investors had purchased those bonds.

The head of the authority, Faisal Al-Haimus, said: “The government has successfully completed the sale of financial bonds,” indicating that “all financial bonds that were sold were subscribed to, and this reflects the strength and stability of the State of Iraq.”

He pointed out that "there are many foreign investors who bought financial bonds, and this reflects the stability of the Iraqi state."

Government bonds are a type of debt-based investment where you lend money to a government in exchange for an agreed-upon interest rate. Governments use them to raise money that can be spent on infrastructure or new projects, and investors can use them to earn set returns that are paid at regular intervals.   LINK

Frank26   [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report]   FIREFLY:  Bank friend said something strange and interesting.  Don't be surprised when this does come out it will come out pretty close to the cap or just maybe a fixed rate...It is possible they come out just right away at $3.22 because remember this is the reinstatement of our currency.  FRANK:  Boom!  Boom!  FIREFLY:  They have so much riding on this with investment and any setback in the market could lead to a disaster of our monetary reform.  Let's just say it comes out at $3.22 and it starts to move in the float or it could be fixed rate for a special period of time...

Mnt Goat   I want to quote from the financial advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Saleh from one of the articles – “The fixed exchange rate system in Iraq is based on the highest international reserves in the history of Iraq and its monetary policy, as foreign currency covers more than 100% of the total currency currently issued.So, this is telling us that the foreign reserves can back the dinar now in circulation by 100%... This is amazing. What wealth. But the dinar is still at 1/6 of a penny?

A Government Policy To Control The State's Public Finances 

 Iraq 07/03/2024  Baghdad: Huda Al-Azzawi   Iraq has suffered throughout the previous years from the inability of successive governments to control spending, both operational and investment, and to control expenditures in all sections of activities approved by the state’s general budget,

until the current government - according to what specialists see - was able, through its policies, to control the state’s public finances through... Implementing automation and electronic governance programs, as well as moving towards balancing programs and performance and not just balancing items.

The Prime Minister’s Advisor for Financial and Economic Affairs, Dr. Mazhar Muhammad Saleh, said in an interview with “Al-Sabah”:

A Government Policy To Control The State's Public Finances 

 Iraq 07/03/2024  Baghdad: Huda Al-Azzawi   Iraq has suffered throughout the previous years from the inability of successive governments to control spending, both operational and investment, and to control expenditures in all sections of activities approved by the state’s general budget,

until the current government - according to what specialists see - was able, through its policies, to control the state’s public finances through... Implementing automation and electronic governance programs, as well as moving towards balancing programs and performance and not just balancing items.

The Prime Minister’s Advisor for Financial and Economic Affairs, Dr. Mazhar Muhammad Saleh, said in an interview with “Al-Sabah”:

 “Within the scope of implementing its financial policy, the federal government has diagnosed that building the federal general budget on the principle of the so-called budget items alone does not provide an adequate basis for controlling financial transactions.” And reassurance of expenses, both operational and investment, in terms of performance and correct targeting of the activity spent on efficient". 

He stated,  “In this regard, the scope of financial responsibility required moving in two parallel directions to raise the efficiency of public finance and financial discipline. The

 first is:

     automating public finance work in revenues and expenditures,

     introducing digital systems, and

     relying on electronic governance through the contents that the government program came up with, and the

second:

     focusing on directing... Public spending, especially investment spending in implementing public projects,

     aims to balance programs and performance in a gradual and systematic manner, to

     ensure efficient implementation and

     evaluate the performance of expenditures without disruption, delay, or waste of public money.” He pointed out,

  “This is what the current financial policy has taken by adopting disbursement programs that provide oversight and evaluation of multi-faceted activities that concern broad sectors and activities and are currently called (special programs), without implicitly abandoning the budget items that will be an integral part of the budget.” Special programs or programs as a first stage.” Saleh stressed,

  “Based on the above, the country’s financial system is currently being modernized in a successive manner with two pillars (financial automation and modernization of government accounting) and in accordance with the principles of digital control and the adoption of program principles in implementing and managing public budgets in a gradual and systematic manner within the framework of the economic reform policy.” And the country's finances.

 For his part, the academic researcher in financial affairs and development, Aqeel Jabr Ali Al-Muhammadawi, said in an interview with “Al-Sabah”:

“It is not possible to implement the management and control of public financial flows with high efficiency without evaluating and analyzing the financial situation, and the sustainability of public finances on solid financial foundations and methodology and a financial mentality.”

 “A new specialist with more accurate and sober financial models that transcends areas of functional and institutional dysfunction in public financial decisions and procedures, which will provide legal entities and public government institutions with additional objective information that can positively impact the quality of administrative decision-making and decision-making taken by government bodies, councils and departments.”

 He added,  "This indicates the necessary need to prepare a comprehensive financial methodology from experts in the accounting and financial specialization, more than economists, in order to develop

      statistics,

     financial indicators,

     national accounts,

     financial practices,

     banking supervision,

     financial and real estate credit,

     financial insurance, and others

 according to concepts, and to provide specialized and advanced financial analysis."

 And more accurate and sober, taking into account differences in the areas of building, formulating and setting standards and metrics according to standard models, as well as financial practices and applications and statistical resources from various governmental and non-governmental institutions.” https://alsabaah.iq/98944-.html    

Oil Prices Are Heading Towards New Gains

Economy |05/07/2024  Follow-up - Mawazine News   Oil prices were little changed in early Asian trading on Friday, but were on track for a fourth straight weekly gain and remained near their highest since late April on hopes of strong summer fuel demand and some supply concerns.

Brent crude futures, which have risen 7 percent over the past four weeks, were down 2 cents at $87.41 a barrel by 0143 GMT .

U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures, which have risen 9 percent over the past four weeks, were up 9 cents at $83.97, above Wednesday's settlement. The U.S. market was closed on Thursday for the Independence Day holiday.

Oil has been rising this week on expectations of higher summer demand in the United States, the world's largest oil consumer.

"Market sentiment has been supported this week by signs of increased transportation and escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East," analysts at ANZ Research said in a note on Friday.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration reported a massive 12.2 million barrel draw in inventories last week, compared with analysts’ expectations for a draw of 700,000 barrels.

Meanwhile, Saudi Aramco cut the August price of its flagship Arab Light crude to Asia by $1.80 a barrel above the Oman/Dubai average, highlighting the pressure OPEC producers are facing as non-OPEC supplies grow.    https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=250780

At the recent summit in Astana, Kazakhstan, Russian President Vladimir Putin underscored the SCO's role in shaping a more equitable international system.

 We examine the complex relationship between Russia and Kazakhstan, highlighting their strategic maneuvering within the SCO.

US Economy on the verge of Collapse: Japan Final Nail in the Coffin of US Dollar

Fastepo:  7-5-2024

Japan has been significantly cutting back on its U.S. Treasury holdings, marking a notable change in its investment approach. By May 2024, Japan's holdings had fallen to $1.212 trillion, the lowest level since January 2020, representing an 18.5% year-over-year decline.

Several factors contribute to this reduction. First, the increasing yields on Japanese government bonds have made domestic investments more appealing to Japanese investors.

 Additionally, the Federal Reserve's recent rate hikes have raised hedging costs for foreign investors, thereby diminishing the attractiveness of U.S. Treasuries.

This strategic shift underscores Japan's evolving focus on more favorable investment opportunities within its own market.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Friday AM 7-5-24

Urgent| An Economic Expert Warns: We Are Close To The Moment The Dinar Collapses Against The Dollar

  July 4, 2024  Baghdad/Iraq Observer   Economic expert Ziad Al-Hashemi warned, today, Thursday, of the collapse of the Iraqi dinar against the US dollar in light of the presence of rising factors.

 Al-Hashemi said in a blog post on the (x) platform, followed by “Iraq Observer,” that

 “(dollar exchange rates) are on the threshold of 1,500 dinars and are likely to rise further, after the US Federal Reserve banned Iraqi remittances in Chinese yuan, due to suspicions of smuggling, money laundering, and financial fraud.”  

Urgent| An Economic Expert Warns: We Are Close To The Moment The Dinar Collapses Against The Dollar

  July 4, 2024  Baghdad/Iraq Observer   Economic expert Ziad Al-Hashemi warned, today, Thursday, of the collapse of the Iraqi dinar against the US dollar in light of the presence of rising factors.

 Al-Hashemi said in a blog post on the (x) platform, followed by “Iraq Observer,” that

 “(dollar exchange rates) are on the threshold of 1,500 dinars and are likely to rise further, after the US Federal Reserve banned Iraqi remittances in Chinese yuan, due to suspicions of smuggling, money laundering, and financial fraud.”  

He added:   “It is expected that this ban will cause an increase in demand for the cash dollar within the parallel markets, and this may push the Iraqi Central Bank to return to implementing more stringent measures that will increase the state of anxiety and turmoil in the markets.” Al-Hashemi continued:

  “During this week, we witnessed the cessation of selling the dollar to travelers through approved banking companies and restricting it to sales outlets inside the airport only.

 This measure will cause more rapid demand for the dollar from the parallel market, especially with the start of the travel season.” He continued: “As I mentioned in previous attached tweets, the Iraqi Central Bank has not been able, more than 18 months after the exchange rate crisis, to dismantle and solve the exchange rate problem, as the factors of rising exchange rates are still effective and influential.”

He pointed out that   “what happened in the last period was merely a postponement of the moment of the collapse of the dinar against the dollar, by numbing the markets with an imaginary stability as a result of a huge sale of the dollar that could decline sharply with any decision from the Federal Reserve that turns the tables on the central bank’s actions, and this is what happened today.”       https://observeriraq.net/عاجل-خبير-اقتصادي-يحذر-اقتربنا-من-لحظة/

The Worst Case Of "Rich Kid Syndrome"

People Are Spilling On The Worst Case Of "Rich Kid Syndrome" That They Have Ever Seen, And Some Of These Might Make Your Blood Start Boiling

BuzzFeed   Thu, July 4, 2024

At some point in our lives, I am sure we all have found ourselves interacting with someone who is completely out of touch because of their wealth. And while the person might not be trying to be malicious or trying to flaunt their wealth with what they're saying, it can still leave you with a not-so-great impression of them.

Jessica Walter as Lucille Bluth says, "It's one banana, Michael. What could it cost, ten dollars?" while holding a banana in a luxurious living room

A few months back, Reddit user WaterWire was interested in just that, in particular with people who grew up wealthy, when they asked: "What’s the worst case of “rich kid syndrome” that you’ve ever seen?"

The thread got over a thousand responses. Below are the top and best comments — which will probably make you roll your eyes a few times:

A few months back, Reddit user WaterWire was interested in just that, in particular with people who grew up wealthy, when they asked: "What’s the worst case of “rich kid syndrome” that you’ve ever seen?"

The thread got over a thousand responses. Below are the top and best comments — which will probably make you roll your eyes a few times:

1."I used to work with someone who proclaimed to be an environmentalist. She was very preachy. Once, I had a can of Coke on my desk. She said, 'You're going to recycle that, right?' She used her father's personal jet all the time. Once, just to fly from NYC to Boston to see a baseball game."

2."A girl I went to school with crashed and totaled six cars in three years, and her parents continued buying her better and newer cars 'cause every accident 'wasn’t her fault,' and if she had stuff like a backup camera and sensors, they 'wouldn’t have happened.' She got into a fender bender in the school parking lot, and her dad showed up with a wad of cash and paid the other student off."

3."A former friend stamping her foot and crying because 'dad sold the jet and I have to take a commercial flight to our ranch.'"

4."An 'influencer' wondering why other people in their home country don't spend their life traveling like them."

5."Not me, but a friend of mine was an assistant trainer at a Panera store. They hired a teenager who was only working there to meet people. One day, a group left a huge mess in the dining room. Apparently, the teen turned to my friend and said, 'Should we get the help to clean that?' And my friend had to explain that they were the help. He apparently quit not long after."

6."A senior rich kid in my high school was driving his dad's Jaguar when his buddy asked him what would happen if he threw into reverse at 60mph. So they tried it and essentially blew the transmission and the motor up. A few months later, he got a Porsche for Christmas."

7."Had a guy work for me in the military. He thought he didn’t have to do anything because his parents would just 'call their friends.' He ended up getting kicked out for LSD and cocaine use."

8."I have a lot of extended family out in California who I’ve never met, but I sometimes hear stories from my parents, who keep in touch with a few relatives out there. One of my distant cousins, who was, like, 17 at the time, intentionally totaled the new BMW his parents bought him because he wanted a Mercedes instead. Can't remember if they ended up buying him that Mercedes or not, but they probably did. Sadly."
