I've started saving up money and I was wondering at what point of the amount of money should I start a bank account?
IMO Its not worth having one until you have a job and a consistent money flow, but hey, I'm not your mommy.
I got a bank account when I got a job - I didn't find any need for it before than because I wasn't receiving checks or anything.
Well my parents set up one for me when I was like in Junior High. They would put money in it to save up college. So depends, but it doesn't hurt to set one up early.
Get one when you have consistant pay checks...unless you want to go in with handfulls of couch change or something...I have no money in the bank right now it's pathetic, college sucks.
