I still like Suze Orman’s Approved Agenda — but maybe not as abundant as I admired it bygone morning. The capital acumen is an annual she gave to GOOD:

The majority of bodies who acquire these cards are alleged the unbanked and the underbanked. They do not acquire a coffer annual at all—unbanked—and alike if they do acquire a coffer account, what’s again accident is that they’re not application all the casework that the coffer is providing…
The 99 % movement, the Occupiers, is a actual accurate movement. It’s a movement that is actual necessary. By the way, this agenda was developed for them, because this agenda which I acquire now created is a way for you to backpack a little coffer in your abridged with you. I’m absolutely allurement the 99 percenters, ‘you best accompany me with this movement, people.’ If you appetite to accumulate your money in big banks, if you appetite to abide to get fees, if you appetite to abide to get all those things, you leave it appropriate area it is. If you appetite to accomplish a aberration in your own life, how you use money, the accounting of money, aggregate about it, I am cogent you put your money on me.
Orman, here, is destigmatizing the abstraction of actuality unbanked, which is actual abundant in befitting with her “people first” access to finance. If you’re activity to accommodate a prepaid agenda to the unbanked, again it’s asinine to address your barter on how they absolutely should acquire a coffer annual instead.

But Orman goes added than that, to the point at which she’s absolutely auspicious the banked to become the unbanked — to abutting out their coffer accounts and use the Approved Agenda as a checking-account alternative.
And I don’t anticipate that’s a acceptable idea.
Now I can see area Orman is advancing from: the “move your money” attack makes absolute faculty in the ambience of big, brutal banks which allegation astronomic fees to bodies who can’t allow them. But I haven’t apparent any candid banking admonition adage that the best abode to move your money is a prepaid card, as against to a association coffer or a acclaim union. The accomplished Suze Orman cast is centered on giving acceptable banking admonition — but Orman is helplessly conflicted now, and she’s giving admonition which looks actual abundant as admitting it’s mainly confined Suze Orman’s interests, rather than the accepted public’s. If she wants to accomplish the case that bodies with coffer accounts should become unbanked, she’s activity to acquire to do so actual carefully, spelling out her altercation explicitly, because that admonition is absolutely out of the mainstream.

On top of that, I additionally remembered the Amex prepaid agenda this morning — which looks in abounding means alike bigger than Orman’s offering, not atomic because it has no annual fee. I get the activity that they’re targeting altered populations, but if you’re allotment amid the two, and abnormally if you appetite a prepaid agenda to supplement your blockage annual rather than to alter it, again the Amex card, it seems to me, is apparently the above choice.
And there’s an Approved Agenda fee that I missed, yesterday, back I was autograph about it. I said that the Approved Agenda would acquire to acquire abundant chump support; I didn’t apprehension that it accuse $2 per alarm if you’re affected to alarm added than already in any accustomed agenda month.
Jeremy Quittner of American Banker, accoutrement Orman’s agenda launch, does annihilation to allay my concerns:

“Younger bodies are not absorbed in acceptable blockage accounts, they don’t address checks, and their allegation to address them has diminished, decidedly with fees on blockage accounts,” says Patricia Sahm, managing administrator of Auriemma Consulting, of New York…
Neither Suze Orman nor her assembly fabricated themselves accessible to comment.
If Orman is austere back she says that “I couldn’t be added appreciative of this agenda if I tried,” again she should be acutely cellophane and acknowledging back rolling out this product. And she should be actual bright about whether she’s auspicious bodies in general, and adolescent women in particular, to use her prepaid agenda rather than aperture up a coffer account.

I still anticipate that bodies should acquire coffer accounts. If you abatement defalcation aegis and aloof use the debit agenda which comes with your account, that behaves abundant like a prepaid agenda but has abundant added flexibility: for one thing, you can drop banknote into a coffer annual for free, while putting banknote assimilate a debit agenda is non-trivial and costs money.
Do adolescent bodies allegation checks? No — and there’s apparently a case to be fabricated for a new affectionate of banking product, a no-monthly-fee coffer annual after checks. Basically, what the Brits alarm a “current account”. Such an annual would be at a aggressive disadvantage with annual to Orman’s Approved Card, back a accustomed debit agenda is accountable to Durbin banned on altering fees, but prepaid debt cards are absolved from those limits, acceptation that Orman can allegation merchants a lot of money back they acquire her agenda as payment. But from the angle of what bodies like Orman like to alarm “financial wellness”, a coffer annual is, over the continued term, absolutely consistently a Acceptable Thing. And Orman shouldn’t be accomplishing annihilation which discourages bodies from accepting one.
