I may be misremembering timelines, but wasn't what happened that he left his wife for Edie Falco and then went back to her (his late wife) when she got sick? Though that's still pretty messy...

Awesome journalistic ethics, Vanity Fair! First rate!

But the forbidden thing makes it BETTER.

You *do* need to report the card stolen as soon as possible (or as I said above, "promptly"), and your liability increases the longer it takes for you to report, but it's not true that the bank has "no legal obligation" to repay if you do report, or that the only applicable protection is through FDIC. Chase would be…

This is also not accurate. Customers are only liable for up to $50 of charges racked up under debit card theft (provided they report promptly—consumer liability goes up the longer you take to report): http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0213-…

Chase is not protecting their clients, in this case. Chase is protecting themselves, from being on the hook for more than they want to be when these cards are inevitably misused by the hackers. Gratitude to Chase in this case is an inappropriate response.

Oh, dear. Please don't double down on your already bananas argument. You do realize that, even if we were living in a strange world where people were only allowed to withdraw 1/365th of their annual salary at a time, people are still allowed to go to ATMs on days that they don't go to the office?

Hahahahaha!!! Yes, I dare you to try that. Have great fun with that one. Retailers who offer cash back cap that perk, generally at around $80 or $100. But by all means, go on up there and try requesting $290.

Funnily enough, you're even wrong in your math—$50K divided by 365 is actually less than $189. Which would I suppose strengthen your argument, if your argument made any sense to begin with. You're acting as if people were advocating for withdrawing the same amount of cash every day, rather than being able to do so on…

Congratulations! None of what you've said is true or accurate. I compliment you on an across-the-board wash, including even failing again to understand that the cash withdrawal limit we're discussing is $100, not $300.

It's a good point, and I thought about that—they don't all have the same childhood bedroom, that's probably not actually Cecily Strong's parents' cat, etc.—but at the same time, why couldn't she have just said "my woman" instead of "my man"?

True, but if we're talking about Chase's cards, it shouldn't be the case that Chase is powerless to use their own internal security measures and emergency procedures to protect their own customers in response. Card theft happens all the time on a smaller scale; often it's the responsibility of the merchant and not the…

I can infer that because that's literally what is said. These specific new limits are being imposed, across, the board, only on those customers who used their cards at Target during the period of the Target security breach. Probably in order to limit the amount for which Chase will be held liable if those cards are…

"At least 2 million shoppers who used bank debit cards at Target Corp stores during its recent data breach are facing lower limits on how much cash they can take out of teller machines and spend at stores....JPMorgan Chase & Co said on Saturday it is notifying customers who used Chase brand debit cards at Target from…

Ha!! This is probably the correct answer.

But according to the CBS article, this decision is not being applied to Chase customers based on their HHI.

I don't believe you asked how much I make until now, but since you just did, I will tell you: it's absolutely none of your business, and in no way is it relevant to this conversation. So I will very gladly dodge that impertinent question, except to say: I make enough to occasionally spend more than $300 in a day and…

YAY FOR THE KITCHENAID! I don't even know your wife, but I'm so excited thinking of her opening that on (just assuming) Christmas morning. I LOVE mine. What color are you getting?

The linked article says nothing about these limits applying only to customers whose annual income is $50K or under—so sure, feel free to use math, but you might want to stay away from math that you just made up in your own head.

I don't know if I would have noticed, except they used their own names and their own (hilarious) middle school photos. I mean, surely having sex in your childhood bed with a lady is just as awkward as with a dude?
