You know what I'm really over?

Fees.

Concert ticket fees, cleaning fees on weekend rentals, a processing fee for existing.

It is endless.

And the worst part, these fees hit hardest when you're already trying to get ahead.

Fees are everywhere and they hurt you most when you're down.

That's why Chime offers fee-free banking, which means no monthly fees, no overdraft fees, and no minimum balance fees.

I once got hit with a $15 maintenance fee just because my account dipped below the minimum balance for a single day.

I wasn't overspending, I was just timing my rent payments around payday. That fee felt like a big

penalty just for budgeting. But with Chime, I wouldn't have gotten charged for not being rich yet.

No minimum balances, no hidden fees, just breathing room when I actually would have needed it.

It is so simple. Banking should not cost you money. And with Chime, it doesn't. Open your account in two minutes at chime.com slash help wanted. Chime feels like progress. Chime is a financial technology company, not a bank. Bank. Bank. Bank, provided by the Bank Corp Bank N.A. or Stride Bank N.A. Members, FDICC. Spot me eligibility requirements and overdraft limits apply. Timing depends on submission of payment file. These apply at out-of-network ATMs. Bank ranking and number of ATMs, according to U.S. News and World Report 2023. Chim checking account required.

Nicole, on my way to meet you to record this podcast, I got a call from a number I didn't recognize and I let it go to voicemail.

Smart.

And I want to play the voicemail that this person left me.

Okay, ready?

Here we go.

We're going to have to do some bleeping. Hi, Jason. It's John Eddie calling about CrowdStrike. There was an article that Entrepreneur.com picked up earlier this week that was updated. Just hoping to get in touch with someone to get that fixed. Can you give me a call when you can, please or take a look at your email? Thanks so much. Bye.

How panicked does that guy sound?
