    Those accounts had disappeared by 93. I was 13 then, and didn’t know about my other checking account, cause my grandma didn’t think I needed any money till I left for college. I went around to every bank and ended up setting up my “first” checking account in 93, cause I started working on a tobacco farm for video game money, and needed a way to cash my check without fees. None of the banks were offering interest on checking accounts, and the best interest rate I could find at the time on savings was 1.75%
