And a closed business reopens. Are all of the Anonymous Tribe so pessimistic?

Has anyone ever figured where United Bank gets the mney to buy these banks? Is business that good?

#5 Nene on 08/22/09 at 10:01 PM

Probably the ones that United wouldn't loan to...

I love the way you're working yourself so hard for so little. Good practice for when your republican plan is fully in place.

#8 Sheila Tolley on 08/23/09 at 08:12 AM

I wish obama would bail out.

Is it true that United Bank is for sale?

#11 Brad on 08/24/09 at 09:30 AM

United Bank consistently makes good business decisions. This would be why they continue to grow.

United Bank gets the money to buy these other banks because it has been properly and resposibly managed for the more than 100 years it has been a part of Pike County and the surrounding communities. United Bank is an exceptional example of how a "community bank" works! Put your customers first and success will follow! The Edwards have the right idea, and the right people to make it happen. Congratulations, United Bank!
