Cashing a check made out to someone else

There is pride to be had by saving up your money, filling out the deposit slip, and personally going to the bank. I can’t be the only one who remembers doing this as a young child? Sometimes it was $5.00, sometimes a little more, but I remember feeling so grown up as a child when I did my own banking. I loved watching the savings book get stamped with the new transaction and watching the balance grow.



DH and I both grew up with savings accounts which we would physically manage ourselves. So we did the same for our Ds when they were very young. D1 found watching the balance grow so satisfying that she essentially saved every dime she ever earned or was given. This prolific saver had 25K saved as of last May when she graduated from college.

Her sister is another story, however. Sigh…
