Need suggestions on where to stash my cash

[rudeguy]

I am trying to get some cash saved up but keep finding stupid things to blow it on. I'd like to set up a savings account or something and have money direct deposited into it. I'd like to do it where I would have to jump through some hoops to get at it.


Lil help?

Send it to me.

Put it in an account where it takes 3 other signatures to get the money out.

ask your grandma to save it for you and not give it no matter how you ask.

Don't bother. You won't go through with it anyway.

You could setup an online savings account at emigrant or whoever. You would need to transfer the money back to your regular bank before you could use it.

put it in a CD that way you will be deterred from touching it.

I lack self control...I've demonstrated that more than enough times.

What about ING?

loan it to a relative. you definitely will have to be determined to get it back.

Stop buying taco's for birds.

Hide it in your mattress.

Here's an idea. Sac up, be a man and don't spend it. Problem solved and YOU solved it.

ING Direct?

Put it in mason jars and bury them in your yard.

ING Direct?

This. Set up automated transfers and profit, literally.

Just do like I did and stop buying needless shit.

It works.

Good list of accounts at FW Finance.

don't do that... or else this might happen to you.

 

[chipy]

you could also buy very expensive/collectible wines or art. this is risky because you aren't guaranteed that you will get back what you spent... but the potential is there to profit. and, you won't be able to spend it unless you drink the wine ;-)

I believe this is called financial responsibility. And it is indeed a proven method.

Or try this

Just get a savings account and cut up the atm card you get. That way you can only get money during business hours at an actual teller. It will make it more difficult/less convenient to get your $$. You could also try setting this up at a bank that doesn't have a branch in your town....a local bank in another town works great, especially since they aren't likely to have a web interface to xfer funds.

...or get a SO who is better at money than you are...
