! The Turning Point i i Can you look back to some time that

was a turning point in your life, possibly the turning point that placed you on the road to success?

Many successful people can do so, and nine cases out of ten that turning point came when they decided to start a bank account and save money. If you don't be­lieve this, ask some of the successful men you know. How many prosperous men suc­ceed without some connection with a good bank? Few indeed. We stand ready to help you.
