Our Blog is a conglomeration of conversations which took place around the breakfast table in one or another Bettina Network home. We cover a wide range of topics.
As members of the Bettina Network Community send us information they would like disseminated to a large audience, or something happens which just strikes our fancy and we want to share it with all of you - it will go immediately to Bettina Network's Blog.

From A Reader on the Banks
(ed. note) Having contacted this blogger as to what they meant by “ETF”, it means “Electronic Funds Transfer” usually abbreviated by “EFT.” —————————————————————————————– Thanks for your posts.

The Truth about Debit Cards
copyright 2009 Bettina Network, inc. This is a follow-up on Bettina’s Hall of Shame award. We are beginning to think this award should be shared by the banks and the media.

A Spectacular Breakfast

David Letterman Needs to Resign
It was clear where David Letterman was coming from when he made the very ugly and extremely sexist comments about Sarah Palin’s daughter.

Thanks for exposing Bank of America
I really appreciate your blog and your guts in putting Bank of America in your Bettina’s Hall of Shame. I have something to contribute, which is true of many banks. You talked about overdrafts.
