Just Pass Me By

So we moved and got a totally free checking account this past summer. This week we get a letter saying there is a $5.00 a month charge if we don’t keep the acount balance at 500$ a day. I have to stay this doesn’t sounds very free to me. I am doing good with what little money I have and don’t need no banks taking away more money. I am so tried of banks doing stuff like this. They get enough of people money through atm fees, overdraft fees, and other fees they don’t need a extra $5 a month from me. I haven’t over drawn any of the accounts yet, but still I know lots of people do that. Maybe its time to look at the local credit union.
