    Bankers call the difference between what they pay you on your deposits and what they charge you for a business line of credit, MARGIN.
    My case in the Carter years was 18.5% to him and 5.23% to me.
    It varies with how much they want to make, and can get away with.
    Has nothing to do with supply, demand, or your credit score.
    If he makes the loan; he gets the margin, not less because your FICA is
    150 points less than another borrower.
    Actually banks make their money now on FEES and not on loans.

    Fuel dealers are past masters of managing MARGIN...

    Don't walk a long way with a five gallon can. Might be disappointed.

    Shell gas in Lex, KY over Xmas was 2.38. When I left Tupelo to go there,
    Shell was 1.86 and the trusty Walmart/? was 1.79. Shame we can't order fuel online and far apart.

    Per the Main thrust of Super Bowl advertising: "We are all in this together"
    Good to see they were paying attention getting in on this "healing".

    Stopped at new Loves in Bliss, ended a little shy of where I wanted. In other news at the moment Windoming is looking calm, so hopefully the land wights will hold off the winds tomorrow. I'll recheck conditions when I get to the 86/84 split tomorrow and decide on my best course. For now I need to see if this place has laundry machines taking cards yet, or if they can make change.

    6am delivery in Akron.....

    BOL says "Driver check in at receiving office west side of bldg".

    Sign on receiving office door says "Receiving hours 7am-2pm".

    And to get to this door I had to go thru a gate that says, "No Trucks", and there's a yard jockey spotting trailers.

    I efn HATE Mondays.........:mad:
