“an automatic check deposit might not be such a good idea in times of bank runs and banking holidays.”
Quoting: Dr/\gomir I don't even have a choice. We don't even get paper stubs anymore. Everything is online. Doc, were you aware that a few months ago a law went into effect that basically says that if you are on Social Security (and probably other government programs, I'm not involved with any others) you MUST have a Bank Account and you MUST receive your benefits by direct deposit? The "up" side is that it saves the government the costs of printing, paper, and postage. The "down" side is...well, we can figure THAT out too. There is always that period of time before "THE" day when I hold my breath and pray that the country holds together long enough for some overpaid government worker to take time out of their coffee break in order to push the "send" button so that I can pay my bills and eat for another month.   for those of us struggling with these issues, i suggest buying seeds, having your basics covered for survival, and though we have a rough time with such a low income, it's better to have the goods NOW than to wait to try to buy them after the fact. i'd rather be totally broke and know i have a full tank of gas and a collection of seeds, as well as a couple of good bicycles, than hold onto the money for a rainy day. in the meantime, good health, eating well, stocking up on natural remedies and practising non-attachment to your material goods is crucial. we often pare down to having only what we can carry, sometimes out of necessity, often because i get panicked if i have a bunch of stuff i don't need. i prefer to invest in organic foods than a flat screen tv. :)
