Tip of the day:

Bank Account

Often representing a new opportunity and success, the King of Wands can mean it’s time to open a new bank account to secure your finances and bring about prosperity. If you need an online checking account or one for your personal savings, check out the accounts from Chase, Bank of America, or a local credit union. Many of them offer convenient mobile banking apps that make banking far easier and more affordable than in the past. The main difference is just the price and convenience of how close the local branch is to you.

If you just need an online account, you can save quite a bit of money with an online-only account, but I prefer the flexibility that comes with having a real branch. Many banks allow you to open online, which makes the service fast and easy! Whether you are looking for a personal or business bank account, make sure to read the fine print to avoid hidden fees that are common with certain banks.
