"NOW"Wang goes into a bank to open an account.
What can I do for you?
I'd like to open an account, please.
What sort of account do you have in mind?
I'm not sure. Perhaps you can give me some suggestions.
OK. First, how much money do you plan to keep in your account on a regular basis?
I don't have much money. I receive $420 a month from our government and that has to cover all my expenses.
Oh, what you really need is a checking account so you can pay your bills.
That sounds good.
But there's a kind of joint checking savings account which is called "NOW" account that gives a little interest on your money to help cover the cost of the account itself.
Can you tell me how it works?
Sure. It's simple. You deposit your monthly check in your savings account, where it earns interest until you transfer it to your checking account to cover the checks you write to pay your bills. Pretty good. How can I open a "NOW" account?
Please fill out these forms, print and sign your name here and we'll be all set. How much cash do you plan to deposit in your accounts today?
$30.
Come in again in about a week and I'll give you your plastic "NOW" card that allows you to bank by computer during non-banking hours.
Wonderful. Thank you very much for your advice.
Clerk: Don't mention it. It's my duty. |
