If money doesnt grow on trees, then why do banks have branches?
412965
Leaves grrow on trees. Banks have different branches to make it more convenient for their customers to reach their place. For example: If you really need to shop at Macy's but you are in New York and the nearest Macy's is in Los Angeles, what will you do? You have to let the company establish a branch there.... Clear????

It lends money to banks and collects interest.

Because banks are pimples on the bottom of capitalism. :-)

Sounds like a good idea in theory, but sometimes the reserves need to be used. Otherwise there's no point in having them.

No, but you can donate them to charity and the banks will sort that out for the charity.

You would borrow money, typically, from depositors. You would need an equity stake of something like 15% when you first start-up although that could decline to around 10% as you grow.

First of all planting of any plant means returns equals to many many buck,it can't be calculated in terms of cash.Commonly known as jade plant, dollar plant, money tree, money plant, or friendship tree (botanic name Crassula ovata, Crassula portulacea--also "wrongly" identified as Crassula argentea, Crassula obliqua) is a succulent plant that sometimes has small pink or white flowers.Jade Plants are evergreen succulents native to South Africa where the environmental conditions are dry with little rainfall.The plant itself can be identified with thick branches and smooth, rounded and fleshy leaves that grow in opposing pairs along the branches. The species has a jade green color to the leaves, and some species can also develop a red tinge on the edges of leaves when exposed to high levels of sunlight. The growth pattern and structure of the succulent is evenly distributed. Dependent on the environment in which it is in, the plant produces small white or pink star like flowers that adorn the ends of new stalks in the Spring.\n*Some called  Lunaria annua money plant.

No - it comes from the visual form of the branches

It is the place where the species was developed. That determines that each specie requires determined conditions to grow at optimal rates. I.e. eucaliptus requires a lot of water, so you will not find it in a dessert. \nIf you plant a tree outside its habitat it may not grow as much as in its habitat. It may inclusive die.

Plant a money tree in the back yard, other then that you'll need to get a job.

Because they pay those profits back to their members/customers in the form of dividens. Credit Unions are designed to make money for their customers. Of course they have to pay the salaries and all the overhead, and usually keep a certain amount of liquid cash in reserve to work with, but the remainder is paid back to the account holders -- making them non profit.\n\nAs far as upgrading and building new buildings, these sorts of things are done by a vote of the board of directors which the members of are voted on by the customers. If the board feels its necessary to build a new branch, to better serve the members, or to upgrade computers, to better serve the members, they have the right to take away from the profit pool to do so. This means that the members get less a dividen than they would have that particular year. If the members think the board is spending fivously, cutting into their profits, they vote in new members of the board to correct for that activity.\n\nIt's a very democratic way of doing things, but, just as in the case of our federal and state governements, these board members (like politicians) take advantage of the fact that very few members actually use their democratic voice when it comes to the choices they make.

I know the owners of several tree farms that would gladly sell you their interests for next to nothing. I know noone who has ever made money in this business. Avoid it like the plague.\n\nThere are advantages for poeple who own land and want to decrease their taxes by claiming an agricultural exemption and people who have lots of land with existing trees. But don't plan on a Christmas Tree lot. You will be competing with the people that are not just selling trees as a stand alone business.

Because they would need to support their own payment network. Visa, MC, etc. provide a network that is secure and can handle huge amounts of transactions. It would take a huge investment to create new ones and then you have to convince businesses to support the new network. Its too much work for the average bank.
