Some Banks Fund Bad Politicians. The Aspiration Account is Different

Some of the links in this post are from our sponsors. We provide you with accurate, reliable information. Learn more about how we make money and select our advertising partners.

We hate to break it to you, but your bank could be one of the bad guys.

Sorry, but it’s true. America’s banks are generally raking in record profits and sometimes shoveling astounding amounts of money to lobbyists and politicians so they can get their way. 

Yep. Your money could be going to politicians you hate. Nobody wants that. But we found a debit card that uses your money to help support working Americans instead. 

It’s from Aspiration, and it doesn’t exactly mince words. Seriously, check out what it has to say about the big guys in the financial industry:

  • “Too many on Wall Street still believe that greed is good.”
  • “Big Banks and Wall Street work their hardest for the wealthiest few.”
  • “Unlike the Big Banks, we don’t use your deposits to fund oil pipelines or turn your fees into campaign contributions to the politicians that work against you.”

How You Can Grow Your Money 11x Faster — And Stop Supporting Greedy Politicians 

So how exactly does Aspiration help you stop supporting greed?

The company commits to donating 10% of its earnings to nonprofits that support working Americans as well as environmental causes, and it makes it easy for account holders to do the same. That’s right. You can stop supporting politicians you don’t like and start upholding causes you care about.

Plus, Aspiration lets you earn up to 5% cash back* and up to 11 times the average interest on the money you set aside to save** (the FDIC reports that the average account earns just .09%). It’s an all-in-one online-only account that comes with no monthly account-maintenance fee and no minimums. 

You can grow your money and rest easy knowing you’re not accidentally supporting politicians and causes you don’t like. 

Best of all, switching to the Aspiration Spend & Save Account is really pretty simple. It takes just a few minutes to sign up with Aspiration and start supporting causes you actually care about.
