LOL; who would ever get this card? Prepaid Kardashian Kard is rife with fees
While regular bank debit cards are typically free and don't charge any fees, a 12-month Kardashian Kard costs $99.95 just to own, including a card purchase fee of $9.95 and 12 monthly fees of $7.95. After the first year, consumers must continue to pay the $7.95 monthly fee.

On top of these initial fees, it costs Kardashian Kard users $1 every time they add money to their card, and it costs $1.50 to speak with a live operator. If they want to pay their bills automatically using the card, they'll be charged $2 per transaction.

3. What is a "Kardashian"? Is that anything like a Klingon?
Clearly it is some pop culture reference that means nothing to me since I have failed to keep up with the latest Saturday morning cartoon characters.

7. She starred in a, shall we say, independent video.
One camera angle for about 75% of the vid.

13. There was an email circulating around about Obama passing a law
that mandated the CC companies to do just that. Also, banks were suppose to charge for every transaction. It was a tax that would go back to the government.
