Balki Bartokomous : When I put my money here, what are you going to do with it?
Larry Appleton : The same thing they do with my money: They loan it out to other people for interest.
Balki Bartokomous : They give my money to other people just because it's interesting?
Larry Appleton : No, no no. "Interest" is what other people pay the bank so they can use your money.
Balki Bartokomous : Well if they're using my money why don't they pay me?
Larry Appleton : Well the bank performs a service. For instance, you could come here an borrow money yourself.
Balki Bartokomous : I could come to this bank and borrow my own money and then pay them interest?
Larry Appleton : Well... yes. Provided you had good credit.
Balki Bartokomous : What that is?
Larry Appleton : Well "credit" is proving to the bank that you don't need to borrow... your own money.

Larry Appleton : I'm not?
Balki Bartokomous : Of course not! Erotic? Don't be ridiculous!
Larry Appleton : Neurotic. Neurotic! NEUROTIC!
Balki Bartokomous : Okay, don't get crazy!
