Just wondering how people with multiple accounts work to keep them from going stale due to inactivity. I know some people just deposit and then withdraw funds from their accounts. If it were me, I'd prefer to keep equal exchanges of currency from registering on my bank statements. Those can clutter things up quite quickly, so unless it has an actual impact on my ending balance, I'd prefer to keep things neat.
I guess the occasional $20 deposit or withdrawl could work, but do you guys with 3,4,10 accounts keep a spreadsheet to make sure you move money frequently enough? Personally, I don't understand why leaving several hundered dollars in an account with no work on behalf of the bank is a problem (aside from escheat laws), but it sounds like they don't like that.
Anyway, my first two accounts were my main bank and main CU so managing isn't a problem, but I'm curious what you other guys do. Thanks!
