如人饮水·冷暖自知 ——愿为闲人

人们把钱存银行,一为安全,一为得利息。银行吸储后向外放贷,贷款利率肯定比存款利率要高,一进一出,赚取息差。这道理好懂。

过去领工资,拿的是现金,有了积余人们就跑银行存起来。我的工资什么时候开始打入银行卡的?翻一下帐簿,哦,是1994年一月。之前每月10日是我们公司发工资的日子,小小的财会室里热闹非凡,退休的老人也都来了,招呼声嬉笑声闲聊声不绝于耳,大家有了个见面和交流的机会。自从工资转到卡里,无形中阻断了老同事们的联络,我们公司又从不组织退休人员的活动,人一旦退休,就像一只断了线的风筝,除了几个要好的自行联络约会一下,大多数人就再没了碰面的机会。

银行发卡,也有指标,各银行之间竞争激烈,以至人人手里都有不止一张的卡,有的人还可以拿出厚厚一叠。现在的工资(包括退休金)都打在卡里,钱发在卡里就像放在自己的钱包里,钱包里的钱不会全部用光,或多或少都会留点,卡里的余额,银行给付的是利率最低的活期利息,积少成多,我们都默默地为银行做贡献了。

要把卡里的钱转成定期的,不用一次次跑银行,只要到理财柜面开通一下电话或网上业务,靠打电话或上网就能解决。但大多数老人不会使用这个便利的方法,有的甚至连自助取款机也不会用或不敢用,宁愿拿号排队等候柜面的人工服务。

继工资打入卡里后不久,又有新生事物出现了,银行发行信用卡。办了信用卡,在规定的透支额度内,欢迎你向银行借钱用。每月的透支额不计借贷利息,而且还可以分期偿还,还给积分(积分多了可以换指定商品),还搞赠物活动,想尽方法鼓励持卡者消费。比如今年四、五、六这三个月,兴业银行搞送牛奶活动。用同一张信用卡消费,每笔满288元,集满三张签购单,就可以在指定日指定地点换取50元左右的蒙牛特伦苏牛奶一箱,每卡每月限换二次。因为女儿的婚事将近,最近几个月正是我们频繁购物的时候,能用卡就尽量刷卡,每月领两箱牛奶吃吃,何乐不为?我们拉信用卡消费,银行和商家之间的折成是多少?银行鼓励持卡者多消费,透支消费,不收贷息又搞活动,图的是啥?我有点弄不明白,但心里又清楚,反正无论谁,千做万做蚀本生意是没人会做的。
