F-R-E-E-D-O-M!
By Will from Holland
Question: When you were younger, did you really look forward to having more independence and freedom when you got older?
Second question: Now that you're older and on your own a lot more, do you still like the idea of a lot of freedom?
Third Question: So how do you gain that independence?
Answer: Get a checking account... Or if you have one already, know how to maintain it!
A checking account can give you all the independence in the world:
- Want to order stuff online? Download music legitimately?
- You get your paycheck… Where do you cash it?
- Want to get your first apartment? How do you pay the deposit, or the rent?
- Getting your own (cell)phone?
- Want to get a cool debit or credit card?
Plenty of reasons to get your checking account!
But before you do, or if have a checking account already, can you answer these questions?
- Do you know the difference between a checking account and a savings account?
- Do you know that there are a bunch of different checking or saving accounts that a person can get at each and every financial institution?
- What is the difference between one interest bearing checking account and the other?
- Do you know about the outrageous fees and/or penalties you pay when you have a checking account from some financial institutions?
If you frowned your eyebrows at any of these questions, get smart.
Here's how: click on "FoolProof" in the navigation. Then click on "FoolProof Solo" at the bottom of the page. Register and head to module 4, "Road Trip!".
Watch a bunch of movies, listen to some music and meet some funky international people and you'll soon know everything you need to know about checking and saving accounts.
Still not enough reasons to get you to check out FoolProof Solo?
Okay… We'll also show you how one Colorado girl who paid $4300 for a pizza! With her checking account! Seriously.
And do be sure to let me know what you think about "Road Trip!" I'm around to answer any of your questions! Email me at will@foolproofhq.com.
See you next month!
Cheers, Will.
