Uh, I got thing in the mail where Chase will give me $300 to open a checking account and add a direct deposit. Feels way too good to be true. - Tim Jul 12, 20:08 7
- It's legit. They have some great offers in branch. -- nm - iSpam Jul 12, 20:16
- My parents did that and it was as advertised on both fronts. After the 6 month period required they moved it back out -- nm - Bacon Jul 12, 20:14 2

My settlement lady said that it's a good idea to make my first mortgage payment by mailing in a check. - Dano Jul 12, 19:55 23
- I was told to do this as well many years ago but I forget why. Some kind of physical paper trail for any disputes in the future -- nm - Bacon Jul 12, 20:18
- Maybe this is what she meant. I tried to create an account on the new bank's website and it doesn't recognize my loan #. -- nm - Dano Jul 12, 20:16
- Isn't it just automatically set up to be deducted from your account every month? -- nm - Andie Jul 12, 20:09 3
  - One of the reasons I got the mortgage through my bank was to be able to do that to make it easier. Then they sold the mortgage. -- nm - Dano Jul 12, 20:12 2
    - They can't set it up that way anyway? - Andie Jul 12, 20:17 1
      - Well, see above. I'm not sure the new bank knows they own my mortgage yet. -- nm - Dano Jul 12, 20:19
- The selling of new mortgages is an industry I don't understand. - David Jul 12, 19:58 14
  - I was also trying to figure out how that worked too. - Dano Jul 12, 20:03 10
    - that's what I found when I researched my early sale to a gse (freddie or fannie) - they collect debt that's meant to be good (likely to be paid) and - i.b! Jul 12, 20:20
    - Sort of. - iSpam Jul 12, 20:20
    - I think that's about it. Pretty much the underlying concept of The Big Short - except in that case they - Meg Jul 12, 20:10
    - My WAG is that it's something much simpler. - David Jul 12, 20:08 6
      - I think we need Nick Jonas in a bubble bath to explain it. -- nm - Dano Jul 12, 20:11 5
        
        Wait! Is Nick the hot one? -- nm - David Jul 12, 20:12 4
        
        Keep up. The Jonas Brother hierarchy goes: Nick > Joe > Joel Osteen > Kevin -- nm - Dano Jul 12, 20:15 3
        
        Is Joel Osteen, like, honorary or what? -- nm - David Jul 12, 20:16 2
        
        He's just a jerk, but Kevin is worse. (Andy Cohen and Billy Bush are worse than Kevin though) -- nm - Dano Jul 12, 20:18 1
        
        Is AllJonasBrothersRanked.com down for maintenance or what? -- nm - David Jul 12, 20:19
  - My mortgage was sold twice before I made my first payment. I kind of understand why but mostly not. -- nm - Amanda Jul 12, 20:00 2
    - The way I understand it is this. - Spawn Jul 12, 20:02 1
      - almost - Peglegpete Jul 12, 20:05
- What country do you live in? - Spawn Jul 12, 19:58
- This is crap. Just use online bill pay. Same as a check. -- nm - Amanda Jul 12, 19:57
Still on the porch. People still Pokemon going nearby. The song makes me think of "so cold the night" somehow. - Amanda Jul 12, 19:48 1

Oh... Canada. -- nm - Spawn Jul 12, 19:36 9
- That whole thing is frickin crazy. -- nm - Andie Jul 12, 20:09 1
  - I just watched it again and it definitely was just the one guy - Reagen Jul 12, 20:20
- Good thing some Canadians watch baseball otherwise we wouldn't have known that those aren't the actual words. -- nm - Dano Jul 12, 19:38 6
  - I know the usual version, maybe it's my part-canadianness that remembers it, though. -- nm - i.b.! Jul 12, 19:49 5
    - After "Oh Canada..." they could sing the words to a Nick Jonas song and I wouldn't know if they were the actual words or not. -- nm - Dano Jul 12, 19:50 4
      - Wait! Is Nick the good one? -- nm - David Jul 12, 19:59
      - Oh Canada, land that I love. Stand beside her, and guide her... -- nm - Spawn Jul 12, 19:53 2
        
        Oh Canada, you're too sexy, beautiful and everyone wants a taste. -- nm - Dano Jul 12, 19:57 1
        
        You forgot "polite." -- nm - Amanda Jul 12, 19:58
