Bank run!

August 15th, 2006 at 02:22 pm

Well, I am back from the bank. I hate when I have to get up early to get a check into the bank. I worry that all the checks will come in and something will bounce. You see my husband wrote out 4 checks yesterday for close to $5000 but the customer only had $2100 in his account. Why don't people realize that you have to have money to build their houses.?? The locals here cash their checks quickly. I paid a guy $4300 last Friday morning. When I checked my account at 11 am that same day, the money was already out of my account.
I sure don't want to have to pay whatever the fee is for bouncing a check!

    Ima,
    They probably think the builder is rich so it won't matter if they give you a rubber check. That, and the fact people aren't courteous and self-centered.

    But why would I keep much money in an account that earns no interest. (checking) He just wants to earn interest on that money, so he is slow giving it to me.

    Maybe you should charge him a fee each time he does not get his money to you when he says he will. Maybe 10% of what is owed. That ought to light a fire under him. Of course, warn him first that this is a new policy you are instituting due to poor customer follow through on money owed.
