  • sadly true but funny too

  • "They open for like 10 seconds and WAAHH and then they're closed" HAHAH i dont think ive laughed harder in my life!!!

  • rofl @ how little you occupy failures know about how the bank system works.

    "the service of protecting and storing my money used to be free... now they're charging me for it?!?"

  • This man is a living legend.

  • Great show. It sounds funny here but in a real life it is a disaster.

  • Shut the fuck up. It's comedy, you retards, not a fucking debate.

  • @IronyBeaver something being comedy doesnt exclude it from touching subjects that people can talk about and share opinions about.

  • "Aah!"

    *closed*

  • he did this already in another video

  • i don't know what's more sad. @wipeout4wh's comment or the 94 people that liked it.

  • what's the name of this special?

  • @welsman13 It's from a "Comedy Central Presents".

  • How did I know the top comment would be about Occupy Wallstreet? Fuuuuck.

  • if i had a dollar for every bit of colour depth this video has i would have 8 dollars

  • @woohooboy I couldnt agree with you more, people complain about banks ripping them off, well the solution would be to close all your accounts to show them you dont like it! but the problem with that is that most of the protesters are just selfish people trying to get more for themselves, which is why there is not one voice that they are all speaking with... they sit complaining about capatalisms while talking on their Iphone in their nike trainers and buying all their food from supermarkets...

  • @rootjie good point 

  • He stole this joke from mitch hedberg

  • @mriesing1 You sure about that?

  • @Superstarseven Unless Mitch stole this joke from Louis

  • this was part of the first special I've seen of Louis CK's. fell in love with his comedy instantly.

  • Banks wonder why people hate them with such PASSION. They legally rob you - simple as that. With interest rates, hidden fees, surcharges you name it, they'll take it.

    And when they post what they make in terms of yearly profits, not to mention the cushy salaries CEO's get along with their perks and bonuses, it's enough to make you want to see them go right out of business.

    Banks once upon a time helped folks. That along with many other things have sadly fallen by the wayside

    CK is great!

  • @woohooboy Banks have NEVER helped people. They're not charities, they're money making private companies and always have been. You don't have to have a bank account you know, you can keep your money under the mattress if you like. The reality is that people tolerate the risks, for the security and convenience that commercial banking provides. What Occupy doesn't have, is a solution. Surprisingly, the answer to the world economy isn't simple. Complaining about the status quo isn't an answer.

  • @amstarism - I never said it was an answer. I'm merely stating an opinion. Banks have been doing what they've been doing for so long now that we as the public have had no choice but to accept it rather than demand banking reforms.

    To any event, it's not surprising why the Occupy Wall Street situation has emerged because people are fed up with the current system.

    I do believe it's well past time that the whole economic structure being overhauled and re-examined......

    Oh and CK is still great!

  • @amstarism lol, louis ck has another bit he does where he tells the story about telling this joke in orange county, and your comment reminded me of that joke

  • @isaachaze1 interesting! Link?

  • Credit Unions have lower fees because they don't have to pay eight figure bonuses to their executives.

  • take this guys 15 to hell with him

  • If you have a gun you can rob a bank. If you have a bank you can rob everyone.

  • LMAO "You can VISIT your five dollars"

  • This is why the protests are going on right now soon it will turn into riots if these fuck bags keep stealing the people's money like the Britain

  • @duckmastterflex

    Then switch to a credit union. You can't act surprised when a for-profit entity like a bank starts fucking you over so that they can make more money.

  • Fuck!!!!!!!!

  • This is exactly why we're occupying Wallstreet.

  • @wipeout4wh

    Because that's going to do anything. How about occupying City Hall? Or here is a better idea. The banks themselves.

  • @wipeout4wh Then why weren't you doing it in 1998 when this was filmed?

  • @ProtusMose Me? I was 7 in 1998. That's why.

  • @wipeout4wh I'm a bit confused as to how a bunch of people in tents is supposed to do anything to corporations? To me it seems like a giant fucking eyesore and a retarded idea.

  • @SeetRider a few things, it brings attention to the problems adressed, it shows ''them'' (the one percent) that people are pissed and it shows the 99% that there are more people like them that are pissed. It gives a platform for new ideas to spread and because it damadges Wall Street they will have to look for ways to get rid of this and prevent future protests, and if you don't back down then the only profitable way to do that is by improving the situation.

  • @mdsatan What you don't seem to get is that corporations aren't the ones paying for the giant messes made by these transients. Be mad and protest but stop being ruining parks and creating huge eyesores like a bunch of douche bags. Wall street is going to pay for the damage you assholes create? No, try tax payers. And not just the top 1%, all of us- the one's who actually work and pay taxes rather than bitching to the government and lounging around in some park all day doing jack shit, that is.

  • @SeetRider While there is no central organisation, I know that at most of not all occupy movements there are people taking care of the trash. And what are you on that you are pissed off by these people but about all that other shite like politicians owned by cooperations and lobby-groups ignoring both the needs and the desires of the people they are supposed to represent? Get your priority's straight.

  • @SeetRider ow and before I forget, know of people risking well payed carreers to be there, and recieving death-threaths. Agree or disagree but do NOT think this GLOBAL happening is to be taken lightly.

  • @mdsatan sounds pretty stupid if you ask me- I predict it will change nothing

  • @SeetRider well unless you are a prophet, Im going to believe that the future is how we will shape it. And directly or indirectly this movement will help many people shape it in a better direction.

  • @mdsatan that's fair I'm not going to argue with your beliefs- I just thought I'd share my own.

  • @wipeout4wh no you idiot the wallstreet thing is about bankers being paid too much and doing a bad job, not about being a customers not having enough money! its actually the diametrically opposed argument to yours!

  • @wipeout4wh Thats not true. The banking system Louis is joking about is a part of capitalism, its fine. The REAL problem is lobbying politicians that instead of working in the interest of the PEOPLE that need a voice, they work for investors and large companys. And no real politician actually gets a chance to run for public office because they wouldnt get the sufficient funds for a successful campaign. They would need the money from whose pockets? Right. Companies that want less taxes.

  • @NOSFERATUalu Yes, that's our democractic system at work. We the people vote once every 4 years for a coin toss of "left" or "right" then the elected representatives on both sides of the house get lobbied 365 days a year for 4 years at a time. Capitalism or corporatism has a far stronger voice than democracy. Capitalism represents those who hold the capital. I'm for free enterprise, but I think the influence of money runs too deep into politics, and the gap between rich and poor is widening.

  • @robertdgibson I hope more people are as wise as you. Yes, the influence of money runs too deep into politics and everything.

  • @robertdgibson Voting right or left is why everything is fucked up, democracy and capitalism isn't fucked up, it's the people. George Washington warned people the day we started voting for parties instead of people was the day we'd start going on a downward spiral to fuck. People talk about lobbyists and crap, but if the people weren't stupid and lazy they'd actually look up real candidates to vote for, not the guys who happen to have a lot of shitty commercials and are on TV a lot

  • @wipeout4wh actually its not you dumb fuck. its because companies influence politicians to approve legislation which makes the companies and the ppl who own them richer and bankrupts the ppl and countries of the world. ppl like you are the reason occupy failed.

  • @wipeout4wh Because you're too dumb to understand interest rates? Hm... makes sense.

  • @wipeout4wh instead of just taking your money out of the banks... that'd show 'em. They'd lose hundreds of dollars

  • @wipeout4wh no its not...

  • @wipeout4wh No it's because you're bored and lazy, and like to shit outside on cop cars. Losers.

  • @wipeout4wh No, it's not. Please learn how a bank and businesses operate, namely income and expenses. The occupy movements are in protest of abuse of the system as whole. Minimum balance fees, overdraft fees and earning interest is banking 101.

  • @enigmasshroom Earning interest and charging interest, plus keeping physical money safe. That's banking 101. Everything else is something different entirely.

  • @wipeout4wh And THEY think we're backing down too.....HA, Winter break is all you bank a-holes.

  • "I'm not being broke just to fuck with you" - amazing.

  • He must bank with BB&T

    

  • My banks Atm has 5$'s... im pissed when I only have 4$

  • "I wish I had nothing" xD

  • do banks actually work like this? if so......

  • Comment removed

  • @xjaskix Yeah no they don't. It's a humorous simplification of things. People shouldn't take comedy literally...

  • Awesome crowd.. he deserves it.

  • celebritynetworth(dot)com/rich­est-celebrities/richest-comedi­ans/louis-ck-net-worth/

    cool story bro!

  • @Anonymmify fucking time, how does it work

  • Too accurate. Especially now that the Durbin Amendment is about to kick in. My free checking account that I have had for 14 years with the same bank is about to charge me $14 a month, just to have the account and use my debit card.

  • One of my best bits of louis ck! some of my comedy is inspired by him. no one knows me tho. I remember when know one knew of him too.

  • HA HA HA! Louie looks like a fag with the jacket and tie!

  • @LaganFamily shut up faget!

  • i once had -200€ and they charged me only 0.15€ interest. but i live in germany. haha fuck american capitalism.

  • @swunt10 Fuck you too kraut

  • @2:34

  • I WISH I HAD NOTHING! LOL!!!!!

  • When they bailed out all these banks why didn't anyone suggest that they stop shit like this?

  • u might as well owe money to the mob

  • Fucking Bancolombia and their "You didn't write on the check hat your were going to pay your latest debt so we took it from wherever we wanted so we're taking away your credit card even if you payed us two months at once"

  • So veryyyy true!!

  • Louie solves the economy.

  • they cut out the best part....i cant afford something that doesnt cost anything. i can only afford something that cost you give me $10

  • @joshjja123 lol idd! "if its free i cant fuckin' afford it!"

  • this happened to me yesterday!

    (Dont let the exclamation mark fool you, im quite upset...!)

  • What show is this?

  • @VincentLaw12 it was a comedy special on comedy central

  • I'm not even American and I know that it's a capitalist country. Now I also know about the rampant illiteracy.

  • If you're American, you've been bank fucked.

  • the original airing of this is how I discovered the genius of Louis!

  • Eleven people have not-ten dollars.

  • Ha, I literally have just €5 and some change in the bank right now. Can't get it out either. Last Thursday I was charged €25 for a fucking €200 overdraft and charges for using the ATM. Fucking Bastards! We're in a recession because of them and they actually charge US for it?

  • Bank of America can go suck a bag of dicks

  • This is one of the truest pieces ever! :) I love what Moleman4ever said! LOL!

  • $410 settlement as a result.

  • 8 people who watched this own banks. 2 people are just assholes

  • what a shit crowd

  • Banks are an archetype for social stratification in the US. :D

  • This happened to me because I was overdrawn by 11p. Ended up costing £36. >:(

  • BWAHAHAHAHAH YOU CAN'T GET IT OUT!

    Louis C.K. is fucking hilarious. I love these videos.

  • Fuck this guy rocks, I wish he'd come to Austrlia, I'd be first in line.

  • What year is this from?

  • @Neves1789 '99 i believe

  • 9 people have $-10 in their bank accounts

  • How does someone NOT like this?

  • @Madjecks because some people dont like comedy, even though they watch it on youtube - geniuses :-p

  • @Madjecks I guess they're like bank executives or some shit.

  • wtf this has never happened to me i have taken all my money out of my bank account and i have had almost no money on bank account and it has never been a problem. Scandinavia rules...

  • Damn, I didn't realize how old this bit was... wow,how many jokes does this guy have!?

  • In my country as I'm sure it is in America, it is possible to go overseas for a time leaving money on your account and come back and find none. They charge you for having an account every month. And if you're not using it you get charged for that too. It's really funny I guess cause there's nothing you can do about it

  • Weird to see him in a suit.

  • In capitalist Amerika bank robs You!

  • @Zwartekaka Best comment I've seen in a while lol.

  • @Zwartekaka

    you mean surely capatalist modern society.

  • @Zwartekaka more like Jew America. Louis can thank he jew heritage for that.

  • @baphomet58 He's actually of Mexican descent, believe it or not. Not that being Jewish would make him evil.

  • Comment removed

  • @ozena52 he's half jew

  • @baphomet58 What do you have against jews, out of interest?

  • @baphomet58

    you can go FUCK yourself you racist little scumbag shitfaced prick

  • @ledboy53

    Ha. Its the best country if your rich, or in this case, work in a bank. What about the other 99% of the country who control the other half of the country's wealth?

  • @ledboy53 America is a socialist country, you dumbass.

  • @Zwartekaka I totally agree. WELLS FARGO--You guys are the worst. Yea you!!! Fuck off!!

  • @TheKhaibear Really? I have never had a problem with them. I've had $0.53 in my account one time and they didn't do shit to me.

  • @4Player19 was it a debit card?

  • @Zwartekaka To bad you don't know how to spell **America** -_-

  • @iphonewalkthroughs

    its actually spelled, Amerikkka, douche.

  • @Zwartekaka not capitalist, fascist. crony capitalism isn't capitalism

  • This version is pure gold: /watch?v=rpaCQKJpE9k

  • The banks only open for ten seconds its like YAHHHHH then they close

  • Can this actually happen in the US?

    I'm from Norway which means i dont know shit

  • @Carljoakimmm yes man, im from Canada and trust me, this fucking shit happens in Canada too. the banks are all criminals

  • @wojiaobill but that's fucking ridiculous! it doesn't make any sense!

  • @Carljoakimmm

    Banks make huge fees when non account holders try to use the bank. You get charged five dollars. You get charged for using atm machines. You get charged for not having a certain amount. You get charged for cancelling your account. Rather then have your bank decline your credit card transaction at say a gas station for buying a candy bar that is like 1.50 when you only have 25 cents they charge you 35 dollars.

  • @toomanyaccounts Man now I hate fucking banks too

  • No you don't understand you have insufficient funds we'll that's a good way to put it too I agree with that I find my funds to be grossly insufficient frankly. I was getting ready to call yo guys but thank you LOL

  • My favorite part: "Look, I'm not being broke just to fuck with you guys" LOL

  • hahahaha, I'm in tears "The banks are open for like ten seconds, they're like AAAH! then they close"

  • man.... I wish i had nothing right now =[

  • Which pixel was Louis?

  • The other version is not better. The quality on this is way better u fucking idiot

  • @madtraffic9636 Great joke about how he cannot afford even things that are for free is missing in this version, making the other one better.

  • other version is better, this bersion fucking sucks! fuck this shit, im disliking this shitty video.

  • 532 people liked this video but have bank accounts anyway

  • I'm not religious but, "Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him." Matthew 13:12.

    Man that is sooooo true.

  • who the hell disliked this??!!!

  • @jackhutchens thank banks...LoL

  • bahaha, I fucking love louis :D

  • here , take this guy's 15- he doesn't need it :D

  • I wish I had nothing!

  • i hate to be 'that guy' but 4 people are rich assholes

  • Comment removed

  • hahahahahahah that is so fuckin true!!!!

    fuck the banks, fuck the rich!!! pay people a fair wage!!!!!

  • @munen3434 OR abolish money :D Let's all just make things for free and share around.

  • @The34gl3 That would ruin the global economy and without money there would be no way to account for loans and debt.

  • He's one of the best around. haha

  • Yep, he tells it like it is. These shithead banks want you to have enough money in there so they can act like fucking drunk gamblers and steal your money. They LOVE screwing people over AND the economy. MUCH bigger thieves of Americans than any crooks that have robbed them. Greedy scumbags oughta be hung.

  • He's funny.
