Default Re: Easy help setting up a Freedom Account

Back up money in the checking account is a very good idea! However, I'm not disciplined enough to not spend it! LOL!

My children are young 4 and 6. The estimated school costs are actually more for me than for them. I'm a speech therapist and I work in the schools. Last year I worked in three buildings and each building had their own social fund and even the speech therapist group had one! So I was paying $20 to one school, $40 (!) to a second one $20 to a third one and $10 to the speech fund. All those little fees crop up at the beginning of the year and I am never prepared for them. Then there are the kids' school supplies. My preschooler doesn't have many yet, but I'm shocked by my first graders' list! Whatever happened to a list consisting of pencil, paper, erasor, and one box of kleenex?
