Jonathan Wenger has purchased a $6000/5-month CD via Tao Bank* at a 14% annual yield (compounded monthly). The above contract is posted here with approval by its signees for reasons—to varying degrees, among other—of increased liability/“transparency,” passive promotion of alternate methods of patronizing “the arts,” and to allow anyone who might feel stimulated in whatever manner by it to look at it and possibly feel stimulated.
*Tao bank is not a “real” “bank” and does not offer “real” CDs, to a certain degree, from a certain perspective, however the contract above is “real”/binding/literal; statements in this post have not been approved by the FCC; and certain words/phrases have not been used literally.
