Bank Fees

I’m Miriam Neff-with STARTING OVER FINANCIALLY,-and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, and we’re here to talk about money
M Bank fees are like a hungry thing. A few dollars for an overdraft and a legitimate service charge aren’t enough to satisfy the bank. Enter ATM fees, early closing an account, even paper statement charges.
V Pick your bank carefully and explore their many options. Fees may be less if you keep a minimum balance and also have a savings account there. Bank costs for printing checks are sometimes higher than a third party printing service. That savings account may have limited withdrawal restrictions without an excessive activity fee.
M These may seem like small amounts. Over time, you have better places to spend your hard earned money. Feed a worthwhile ministry, not the bank.
