It might be worth it to keep a small chunk in the BOA savings for easy access?
That's what I do.
Looks like civilization finally caught up with us.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Right now, I'm unemployed. And not panicking. It is such an amazing relief to have cleared my debts and put aside a cushion.
Bear in mind, I don't want to spend the damned cushion--I like having it there--it lets me think about a new car (which I don't need) and a house (oh, god, please).
But being able to breathe while I look for jobs, and knowing I can breathe for a little while more? So entirely worth it.

Gah, DH just called to tell me that he has a company benefit that would allow us to purchase a new car from Ford for just $500 over invoice.
We don't need a new car.
Why tell me?

Which I read as horse. (ita's getting a pony!) Sheesh.
This is a great conversation. I'm marking the reading recs like a mad thing. Carry on!
Also, Laura, the pictures are great! What a handsome kid. But we knew that.

Cool! I feel smart.
Okay, now this whole $3/3-day thing just to get my own money is annoying. Boo.

Is it a use once and use it by a specific date, Suzi? Or something he can do anytime, so you can wait to use it when you need it.

He said something about wanting to tell me so that "if we need something in the next couple of years"....meaning something for K-Bug...but still...we are scraping by NOW....can't add a new car payment without a miracle.

That is because, my friend, Bank of America sucks.
There is a lag between transferring, yes. But we don't pay any money to transfer between our checking and saving. We couldn't be juggling - and using- 4 different ING accounts if we were charged for any transactions.
