Banking Puns to Bank Some Fun

A page of banking puns with associated humor about banks, bankers and their money games.

Banking is an activity that has come under fire ever since it was created.

That's because money is important, influential and a temptation to those who pursue it.

But is it fair that banks receive so much criticism?

Yes, it is.
Whatever your views on banks, and some people may love them, this page is about humor rather than point-scoring.

Let's try to find some funny and forget all about that last bank statement.

Rhymes With Bank

There is an obvious word that rhymes with bank, bankers and banking.

It is an appropriate and well-deserved word summing up the feelings of many of us since the 2008 financial crisis.

However, this site tries to be mostly family-friendly.  So despite the temptation, that word will remain unsaid.

Shout it at them the next time you pass a Bank on the High street, if there are any banks still open of course. 

Or mutter it every time they appear in the media telling us how to expect more austerity or buy bigger loans.

After a loss of goodwill, dodgy representation and an eagerness to make vast amounts of immoral money - this page is now shutting.

Visitors have withdrawn what little remains of their interest and have voted with their feet.

Not that they are really allowed a vote in these matters of course.
