When should I transfer money from my savings account to my checking account?
sakurashina asked:
When I get paid, my employer directly deposits my paycheck into my checking account. I was wondering if it’s wise to transfer some of my paycheck money to my savings account. I’m a college student who goes to the ATM every week or two. I don’t need money for food since I’m forced into the school meal plan. I know my money will be fine in my checking account, but I’m not sure if I can keep track of my money and make sure I actually SAVE my paycheck rather than squandering it all because I see that there’s money I can take out of an ATM. Help?

What is an acceptable thing to use funds for in your savings account?
alexnshanks asked:
I set aside a certain amount of money into my savings account every time I get paid. But I’m starting to wonder what will be an acceptable thing to break into my savings account for? Vacations? A Car? A Home? Retirement? The Money that is not going into my savings I allow myself to spend on anything I want, but every once in a while I let it compile to buy something bigger than one paycheck can afford. So what am I using the savings account for?

Would you open a savings account with an online bank that is outside of the United States?
FL guy asked:
I am interested in opening an online savings account with an overseas bank (bankwest) that’s based in Australia.

Although it is really far from home (I live in the US), they offer a tempting 9% interest rate.
Would you do this? Does anyone see this as being too risky? Why or why not?

How do I open a savings account?
<3 asked:
I’m 16 and am getting a job soon. I am planning on saving half of my paychecks, so I’ll need a savings account.
Where and how should I start one? Are there any perks of savings accounts? I seem to remember my sister getting a $100 bonus when she opened one once…
Or, should I be opening a checking account?
Thanks!

What kind of savings account should I open?
keystone3pl asked:
I don’t know much about the different types of savings account available to me. I am 23 yrs old and make about $1700/month. I’d like to start contributing a small portion of my weekly paychecks into some sort of savings account that will ideally grow into a decent amount over the course of several years. What are my options?
