Kumiko Love Instagram – This is just another reminder that deciding where to put your money matters! ALWAYS research banking fees and interest rates. Here are some banks I do like: 1️⃣ Ally Bank: Currently, I have my emergency savings in their online high-yield savings accounts. You have no over-draft fees, monthly fees, and no minimums. They don’t always offer the highest rates, but come close! 2️⃣ Credit Unions: I love credit unions and have both checking and savings with a local credit union! Bigger banks might offer more products, but they aren’t worth the member-owned service you get with a credit union. Of course, there might be better options if you travel internationally or need access to a bank nationwide. 3️⃣ I have heard great things about the Discover Cashback Debit checking account but have yet to use it myself. This account has no fees or minimum balance requirements, no-fee check ordering, and fee-free overdraft protection. They also offer over 60,000 free ATMs. What bank do you use and love? #personalfinanceforwomen #bankingawareness #savingmoney #checkingaccount #moneytips #thebudgetmom
