Introducing CBTV’s Newest Truth About Series Report: The Truth About Wall Street – Turning Protesters into Prospects

NASHVILLE, TN: I’m sure that not every American agrees with the extremist views of the Occupy Wall Street Group, but that doesn’t mean mainstream Americans aren’t angry about Wall Street’s “business as usual” mentality of greed and profits for themselves above all else.  Americans are increasingly refusing to stand by and allow enormous banks and financial firms to overcharge and take advantage of them.

According to The Nation magazine (November 14, 2011 issue),  “Bank of America had impeccable timing when it decided recently to charge a $5 monthly fee for the privilege of using its debit cards. The notorious bailout baron, having just announced 30,000 job cuts, decided to stick it not to the platinums, not to the golds, but to the debit card masses.”

The uproar over Bank of America’s attempt to charge customers $60 per year simply to have a debit card clearly shocked executives and all but forced them to reverse course.  Like Netflix before them, American’s are saying “NO!” and voting with their dollars delivering the clear message to Wall Street and corporate America that “We’re not gonna take it!”  The growing distrust of traditional sources of Wall Street and corporate America have made the unbiased new online TV show Checks and Balances TV (CBTV) an even more critical resource to turn protestors into prospects.

Founded by 22 year financial veteran Matthew J. Rettick, CBTV provides balanced financial advice, both the advantages and disadvantages of financial strategies, investments and institutions to help angry and disgruntled consumers learn what’s in their best interest and what’s not.  Each week, CBTV reports on relevant financial news and then reveals how to check the facts, balance the information and make sound decisions on what action, if any, should be taken. Both financial advisors and everyday Americans are finding CBTV’s unbiased broadcasts refreshing and vital to cut through superficial mass media misinformation and provide cogent, thoughtful insights that can help all Americans make better financial decisions about their future.
