Walter Breuning was a century old when he walked into a downtown Great Falls bank in the mid-1990s to take advantage of a promotion.
Five-year certificates of deposit were being offered at a special rate, and Breuning wanted to take advantage of the deal, according to former Great Falls resident Gavin Seeberger, now of Portland, Ore. His father is former Great Falls banker John Seeberger, a onetime Great Falls school board chairman.
The elder Seeberger and another bank representative politely told Breuning he might want to consider a two-year certificate of deposit instead.
"Mr. Breuning firmly declined and insisted on a five-year CD, saying that he would be there to collect it in person at maturity," Gavin Seeberger said.
This is a really exciting post!!! An old guy goes to a bank!!! Then he invests conservatively in some CDs!!!! Then he doesn't die!!! Then he collects the modest returns on his investment!!! WOOOOOHOOOOO!!!!! Great suff BMR!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're overlooking the fact that two bankers were like, "stupid old guy, he's just gonna die, why not buy these and we'll collect on his old dumb ass." and he was all jackal like, "Fuck you, mother fucker. I ain't dying for 15 more years. Ballee dat."
ReplyDeleteIt's more jackal than some dumb kid getting put in a game to help his team only to act a fool, get himself hurt and then come out of the game. He would have been better off failing a midterm or some bullshit.
Since when are 'jackal' and 'exciting' the same thing?

ReplyDeleteHa Ha Ha SS said what I was thinking!
P.S. I think my definition of Jackal must align more with SS's because I thought that story about the MD QB was pretty Jackal whereas this old guy meets banker story was fairly suspect in its Jackalitude. Which is really sad because I always considered myself relatively boring so far as Jackals were concerned. BMR, are you by chance getting really old?
My back and joints do hurt today. I am rather fatigued for reasons unknown. My hair is going gray and white. You be the judge, dickface.
