There might not be tomorrow no matter what age you are…every time you breathe out, you’re assuming, for no good reason, that you’re going to breathe in again. So appreciate the gift of life, and never take it for granted. Use it to be well, and to do good for everyone around you, in every day you’re given.
I don’t get the problem. If a bank is charging you for anything you aren’t trying very hard. Free checking with direct deposit. No direct deposit? Open a mutual fund that makes monthly deposits into your account. Use the ATM. Never go into the branch. Online bill pay instead of checks. That should bring most people’s banking costs down to about zero.
As long as you don’t go below your minimum or spend money you don’t have, you shouldn’t be paying ANY fees… if you are, you need to shop for a different bank or adjust your spending so you’re not charged for it. ;-)
