HSBC advertises saving

Yesterday I was watching a couple of minutes of TV. I’m reminded why I never watch TV. The only reason we still subscribe to DirecTV is because of Noggin, Sprout, and The Weather Channel. Anyway, I saw something I thought I’d never see in advertising - a commercial for saving! HSBC showed a commercial for their high-yield savings account.

In a world where we’re bombarded almost nonstop by advertising designed to get us to consume, it was refreshing to see an ad trying to get us to save. I realize HSBC isn’t doing it for altruistic reasons, but it was still nice to see.
