friend requesting me to buy something online on his behalf...  computing the costs...
me:  'you still have change with me...  so we'll deduct that...'
friend chuckles:  'it's ok...  i'll make you my bank...'
me:  'bank?  i don't pay interest...'
friend:  'it's ok...'
me:  'well, your change is actually below maintaining balance for a bank...  you're even supposed to be charged penalties, hehe...'
friend:  'no penalty...  there's no interest anyway...'
me:  'banks charge penalty when you fall below maintaining balance even when you don't earn interest...'
friend:  'you don't require maintaining balance...'
me:  'hehe...  i'm cheap, huh!'
