Google creating a bank! They are already so quick to dock their adwords cash off one’s credit card when the limit is reached…they catch one with an unexpected “withdrawal” at the most inopportune times of the month, so nstepping up to being a bank sounds like a logical step for them…that would take huge credit card comm revenue away from the banks.

Can you imagine a Google bank, making you search for your money, or maybe freezing your account if they didn’t like the way your adverts!

2 Andy Beal I think that nothing “lol” in it. Monopoly is an evil in any manifestation. Google is a leader with a kind face now, but that doesn’t mean that this face will remain such state in future.
