On payday, do you have to "run screaming to the bank" to make a deposit to cover the checks you wrote?

Question

I don't nowadays, but I still remember the days when it was a race against time.....lol

Answer 1

LOL....that is why i opt for direct deposit now.
but yes, i remember those days!!

Answer 2

I really didn't start to get any bills until I made enough money to pay them. I attribute my ability of putting 3 or 4 paychecks in the bank at one time to good budgeting. I made this program on excel that figures all our budget out for you with a percentage left for savings and partying, as well as a new purchase calculator that figures in anythign new you want to buy with your budget and tells you how long you need to wait to buy it. It also figures out percentages of budgets so that you can adjust spending if one item takes up to high of percentage and it gives a total yearly expense for a single item.
So no not anymore am I rushing to the bank every week. Once you budget right, even if you make under 40,000 a year you can still buy what you want.

Answer 3

No I dont have a checking account, but I run right to the bank cause I get paid every two weeks, so by the time pay day rolls around im broke!

Answer 4

I use on-line banking. But I would love to watch you run to the bank to see the actions of your unrestrained twins.

Answer 5

No--I have had Direct Deposit forever....
