Is there a single person ever that has done direct business with the FED?? Am I completely wrong or does the FED do business with licensed banks EXCLUSIVELY??
Order BIG!

I'm dying to know how this will turn out. You WILL inform us after you contact the FED, won't you???

Now that I think about it I probably would have gone to chuck e cheese to get all the tokens they have...and drop them at the bank for a dollar.

there is a way to actually seriously do that. I mean, legitimately a way to do it. Just not legitimately honest, appropriate, or responsibly. I have never tried it, but I have seen it. I'd imagine that would be a good way to make some people never want to see you again. Not sure if the bank actually sought retribution or not.
