Managing checking accounts
July 10, 2019
I’m Miriam Neff with STARTING OVER FINANCIALLY, and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan. Let’s talk about money.
M Why encourage all women to be wise in managing money? Because most will be single some part of our lives whether unexpectedly or prepared.
V Whether married, single, divorced or widowed, we encourage you to know your checking account well. Do you know what your bank charges for an overdraft? What services might be free if you carry a minimum balance? These are more than ‘good to know.’ They are ‘got to know!’
Options are growing for banks that have no bricks and mortar buildings. An account for money to withdraw and pay bills. Some offer decent interest now.
M We use less cash so check which bank gives you the services you need at the least cost.
