I go to the orientation at the hospital on Monday, and after that, I can start working there. I also got the job at Kroger, full time, willing to work around the hours the hospital puts out. So it looks like I'll be working all kinds of different floating shifts in both places. The hospital puts out a schedule once a month, and Kroger once a ( Read more... )

It's all about the interest! If you sign up for a new WAMU free checking account online, you can then get the super special online-only 5% APY savings account with no minimum balance. I already had a WAMU account and I had to get another one, which is silly, but yay for interest.

This has been my comment.

4.50% APY .... No min balance ... And it's seperate from your existing bank account. So a set ammount or percentage of funds can be set to be taken out of your deposited check each pay day, and the rest can just exist in your checking account for your spending pleasure. Takes all the guesswork out of it.

And this is a fairly popular bank here in VA. Which I'm considering for my "existing bank account"

It's being thought on.

If you don't already have an ING account, I can refer you and you'll get $25 and I'll get $10 if you open it with $250 or more and keep the account for 30 days... woo, free money!

Free money ... always good. deltablues January 14 2007, 04:30:58 UTC
I don't have the means to open an account there yet. After the first or second check and paying of the bills that need paying ... I'll open up a bank account here, and I'll let you know when to refer me.

I've got an account with ING Direct... I've been happy with it. The only problem is that if you have to pull money out, it might take two days before you can use it. Other than that, it's great.

I thought you went -poof- from Live Journal a way long time ago.
Shows how much I keep up with stuff ...

What gives with the two days wait stuff? Just curious.
If anything, the moneys that I put unto the ING are going to stay there for a good long time until I REALLY need some cash.

My gramps is concerned about my wanting to open an account online. Worried about online password theft, and me having a good chunk of savings in there only to log in one day and it be gone. That, and he is convinced that there is no theft insurance. I don't know about that one. But I do know that I am finding more and more friends that I would consider very financially smart who use this online savings thingy. So it can't be all that bad.

When you login to your account, it makes you type your account number, your account pin, and also answer a random question that only you should know or something difficult for others to know. And there are more security things they've just started doing that seem good, too. It seems pretty safe. Just make sure you're not accessing your account from a computer that has spyware or whatnot on it. Also, if someone does access your account, they can really only see your balances and send money to your bank account. They can't add a new bank account to transfer to unless they mail in a check and you'll be notified before it's available, so you can call to cancel that attempt ( ... )
