The economy is globalizing and has been for a very long time. If Wells Fargo is to compete (and let's face it, banks are competing for customers, deposits, and loans all the time), they're going to find what they think is the best value for their investment and expense dollars.

It's no different when you shop around for a car, TV, phone, laptop, other electronics, or even groceries. You often seek the best value for your money and it doesn't make you a bad person, IMO.

They’re also competing for investors.

Costco’s operations aren’t too different than other retailers, but they still manage to do well while paying its employees much better than what others do.

I buy whatever I can at Costco solely for this! And Costco generally also hires older generations. I love seeing a mix of people working there. It’s an experience. So I’ll keep throwing my money at them as long as they keep this up.
