It’s only a good filter for whether or not someone is or has been poor. It’s a terrible filter for determining someone’s character.
I’d even venture to guess there are far more criminals and generally unsavory characters with a bank account than without.
- 999900000999 5y agoI don't want to be around people who don't have their lives together. I learned this the hard way in my early twenties. If someone can't handle basic things like having a bank account, there's a good chance the rest of their life isn't all that great. And even being around someone like this can have severe consequences.

- 999900000999 5y agoI'm from the hood. I grew up on welfare, and with this in mind I'm extremely carefully who I'm around. If you've had such a privilege life that you can't understand what I'm trying to say. Good for you. But for someone like myself, it's extremely easy for even a single person who's not on the right path to completely disrupt my life. Usually if someone doesn't have a bank account, they don't have legitimate work. Even hanging out with someone like this can get you locked up. I will admit I'm extra careful given my background. I'll give you another example. One of my friends had to break up with her husband since he was horrible with money and plugged her deep into credit card debt. Does this make her some horrible person lacking empathy. Of course not. She just prefers to pay her bills on time.
