Your link didn't work, but I know my 20 something kids don't feel the slightest need to use a check register. And both a financially responsible. They almost never write checks and bank activity is readily available online. Drives me crazy. A different world than I grew up in.

Hi Davest, try this link.

For future reference, if the link is in all caps, or has large areas that are all caps, try what I did:

Type some text (in this instance "this link") then highlight it and click on the pic of the glove with a piece of chain link and paste the link. It will show up as a hyperlink and it won't be truncated by the Vbulletin software.

Hope this helps.

Hmm... 1996? Can you say Klinton? Started under the watch of Sick Willie.

So, 4 years under Sick Willie and 5 under Zero ... that equals 9 years under Democratic administrations.

Does that mean it's George W. Bush's fault to you?

I bank on line, use debit/ credit card, I write no checks and can do all of that from my smart phone. I haven't needed to balance a check book in 10+ years

We will NOT go quietly into the night!

My son has no need to balance a check book either; all done on his phone.
Last night we sat down for dinner and he turned off the TV--from his phone.
The nerds won.

It still pays to check your account statement every month.
Banks do make mistakes sometimes. And its up to YOU
to find them. Happened to me three times in my life already.

Good for him, seriously!

Plumbata,
Yes, I'm amazed at what he is learning, but he still refuses to show me where the goggle (On-Off) switch is on a new cell phone he purchased for me.

Guess I have it easy,no checking account,no credit cards.

I too come from the era of pre-microwave and pre-ATM machines. But all the technology we have today I welcome with open arms and learn how to use it. Balance a checkbook? Not me. Too much hunting to do.
