A BANK ACCOUNT IS SO HELPFUL!!

Without a bank account are the “unbanked” in the U. S. & 17 million strong.  Stash cash at home or go to payday loans or check cashing which is expensive.  Without one difficult to pay rent, utilities, etc.  Hopefully with an account, they will also start SAVING.  Usually are younger, less educated & lower income.  Robberies are more prevalent around check cashers, especially on pay day.   Go to the website of Bank on San Francisco to get an idea of accounts being offered to these folks.  Shopping your local banks can find ones that will have little or no minimum.  From these accounts you usually get a debit card,  so if you swipe it the bill will not be paid if no money left in the account, so no overdraft.
