19. Checking Accounts
Want or need to open a checking account? You don’t have to pay for one. All you have to do is do a little research and shop around for the right bank that will waive these silly little fees.
We already mentioned Ally bank earlier when talking about their lack of ATM fees. Well, they don’t charge for maintenance fees either.
Oh, and that same checking account doesn’t have a minimum deposit, unlike many other checking accounts on the market. Plus, it pays interest!
20. Online Courses
It’s probably time for you to learn a new skill, or try to perfect a hobby or a passion. You don’t have to enroll at a nearby college, though, especially if you don’t have money laying around for that purpose alone.
Your local library (again!) might offer online classes from LinkedIn Learning or other reputable sources. But best of all, even Elite Ivy League universities offer some free, online courses. Yep, you could even check Harvard’s website!

Maybe you could check into “Get out and dine”. You have to apply for it but if you qualify, you get a card where you can dine out 5 times a month. They send you a brochure listing restaurants that accept the card. I love mine!
These tips are amazing and extremely helpful. Thank You so much

Where do I go for recreation and free meals

Good information, but I’m curious about one statement contained in the article. In item 24 titled Water, we find this sentence referring to reusing a water bottle – “Oh and you’ll not only save money by doing so, but you’ll be helping the planet out by keeping fewer plastic water bottles out of landfills.” If we keep fewer plastic bottles out of the landfill, that means there are more going into it. My question is, how are we helping the planet by infusing more plastic bottles into landfills?
It’s not the bottles in the land fill that’s the issue it’s the resources used to manufacturer, ship , retail, dispose of , truck to the land fill, equipment at land fill, and the fuel used by the equipment operator to get there!
Comments on which subject?

Hey, I have fought all my life cause I have never been married??? It isn’t fair at all. Nothing is being done for us enough. Were is the power of the senior and we can win for the items we want???
