Small Banks: Boring But At Least We Are Profitable




This article is about how the banking job is supposed to be.. They say that banking is supposed to be boring. The bankers say that they wouldn't want there job any other way. Also if the banking job gets exciting then there is a problem in the banking world. I chose this because i like math and money and if you join the two you get banking which this article is about. I don't really agree with the thought that the job should be boring, i think that if its something you want to do it won't be boring. I dont think the information is given fairly because I think there are some people who think their banking job is not completely boring even when the banking world is running smoothly. Yes i would use this source again because i have found it reliable.

  1. Byron, Did you read the Times article your source was summarizing? That article was a more balanced. Your summary was a bit short, but your discussion was spot on. They were trying to be funny -- small-town banking is boring compared to the high-risk, high-paying jobs at the big banks like Citibank -- but I think the writer agrees with you. It doesn't make a lot of money the way Citibank did, but working at a smaller bank has a lot of rewards that people have been overlooking in the last few years.
