Here versus there...

Written by Anthony Demangone

People like "here." 

They don't necessarily dislike "there," but they withhold complete trust. People just don't know everything about "there." 

Just think about it...

"She's one of ours." "He's a local boy." "Your dinner was locally grown at Sussleman's Farm. It is just up the road." 

Who doesn't want to help their local community? People just like "here." 

That's what I think credit unions have going for us. We're all about "here." 

Your money? Stays here.

Decisions? Made here.

Employees? Live here.

Here matters.
