    Kind of curious why banking needs to be done on the road.

    Owner or Lease operators, I can understand.

    Almost everybody takes plastic.

    Just leave home with a couple hundred, stashed in various places.

    You and I are of the same mind :) I feel that the 2-party system is a major reason this country is in trouble as the parties can never agree on anything without appearing to 'defect' to the other side :( So what!

    I think right now that's what I have to do. I'm easygoing (unless someone gets me riled, but I hold it in) and kinda shy in public.

    I agree... the problem is getting them 'politically active' at the same time :(

    We have online banking... they have talked about charging for the free accounts if you don't meet certain requirements (so many direct deposits a month, I think). Well, I'm unemployed so I have no deposits :( May have to close that one.

    No problem... happens all the time :)

    Have a great week(end) :)

    Hiyas...

    I don't plan on having to use a branch, but if something did happen and I _had_ to visit one (say I lost my check-card?), I'd want to find one real quick if they need proof of my ID or something.

    If I had a couple of hundred I wouldn't be in the boat I'm in now :)

    Thanks and have a great week(end) :)

    I think that's the key post here. The main thing is to avoid ATM fee's as they'll eat you alive. Use a bank/CU with the best option or utilize cash back which has no fee's. We live in a world of plastic and computers. Or do like numbers and do the cash stash.
    I seen one guy that stuck in my mind. He got paid on his Comdata card. He had a nice payday like $1500 and he was at the fuel desk cashing FIVE comdata checks at the tune of 3% each. There was a $300 limit. That's $45 that guy just threw away. Some just don't have money sense.
    I threw him an idea and he said, "I don't care".

    Ally Bank has no minimum, no fees, and refunds ATM fees. Also returns about 1.04% which will prolly be going up soon along with all other interest rates. If you ever lose a bank card, you won't be able to get it replaced at the bank anyhow. It will be mailed to you.
