Episode 70

Ask Us Anything! (Part Two)

Affinity Federal Credit Union presents the Wellbeing and Your Wallet podcast! In this episode, hosts Grant Gallagher and Shawn Lubitz answer your burning questions about Affinity. They discuss the credit union difference and share tips to improve member financial wellbeing.

Following the main discussion, the team addresses a final question from the member mailbag. Grant pulls the following submission: Since switching over from a bank to Affinity, I have finally gotten control over my finances. By working with a Wellbeing Coach, I’ve learned the fundamentals of budgeting, and have even started saving for retirement. My brother is having some financial issues right now, and I think it could benefit him to join as a member. However, he doesn’t really understand credit unions. How do I address his misconception that Affinity will have less resources than a bank?

Grant concludes the discussion by highlighting Affinity’s High-Yield Checking account. With a 5.50% APY up to $15,000, monthly ATM refunds, and no maintenance fees, this account is a great option to manage your money.
