SECU Financials - Slip Sliding Away

 To: SECU Board of Directors

 

Dear Chairman Ayers,

'Course everybody and his cousin in North Carolina are awaiting anxiously to find out if you and the SECU Board did the right thing on risk-based lending last night!

.... but appreciate that you and the SECU Board are hesitant to inform member-owners about what's going on at your credit union ....got to be careful about being too transparent with members, right?

And, understand tha "Legal" now has to tell you what to do and how to think...so everybody's cool, patient - don't worry -  members can wait for your decision. Hey, take your time, no members get hurt until you go ahead with RBL.

In the mean time... slip sliding away?

Hope The SECU Board has reached the point where it can positively confirm to all members on Wednesday that... [link -top left, wait for "Hank! to load"]
