As a recent grad I understand the balance it takes to keep your finances in order. It can be tough but it’s 100% worth keeping the health of your accounts in check (nothing worse than unknowingly overspending). The best way to go about this is by opening a checking account that’s right for you and following a few of my basic tips.
Feel like you can’t have a social life without spending too much money? It’s possible, I promise!!
5 Attainable Tips For Curbing Your Spending 1 | Set a budget and stick to it 2 | Track your spending so you see the money coming in and out 3 | Limit how often you go out to eat and where 4 | Keep a ‘priority purchase list’ so you know what to spend on 5 | Set a minimum and don’t let your balance drop below it
Before opening a checking account there are a few things you should look for including no monthly maintenance fees and tech features that will be helpful to you. Citizens Bank’s customer-friendly platform makes it easy to deposit checks via mobile, closely monitor balances, and send money to friends and family through Zelle.
Forget about unwanted fees! You can open a Citizens Bank Student Checking Account for a $0 monthly maintenance fee while you’re under the age of 25 which is great!  Citizen’s Student Checking Account has no minimum opening amount so you can get on the fast track sooner than later.
