Turning Your Check Into “Real” Money
Companies don’t pay their employees with actual cash. Instead they issue a paycheck.
Old Skool: You are given an actual paper paycheck every payday.
New Skool: Your paycheck is deposited directly into your bank account (Direct Deposit).

If you get a paper paycheck…
The Best Choice: Deposit your check into a checking account at a bank. You can access this money using a debit card (takes $
straight from your checking account) or by withdrawing cash from an ATM.
Typically no fees are charged.The O.K. Choice: Cash your check at a bank and
hold onto the cash. Easy access to $, but also less safe and more likely to spend
The Bad Choice: Check Into Cash, Currency Exchanges, etc. These places charge the highest fees

How interest works…
Interest is how banks make money.When you deposit your $ in a bank, you are lending
that bank your money and they pay you interest.When a bank lends you $, you pay interest to them.
Ex. Keef deposits $100 into his checking account and receives 1% interest on his deposit.
The bank loans out that $100 to Weezy and charges him 3% interest.
So, the bank owes Keef $101 but Weezy owes the bank $103.
$2 profit!!!!
