She has her checking account at First Bank Trust because she pays no service charge. And she doesn't have to keep a minimum balance, so she can put more money to work earning interest in a savings account. Steve Nelson thinks a checking account isn't really free, it you pay for checks imprinted with your name and address.

He banks at First, where he gets free checks. And free service, too. Ron Edwards got rich because he knows a good deal when he sees it. Usually, he keeps a big balance. But he also writes big checks.

Before he switched, he paid an occasional service charge. And that made DAflK him mad. So Hia insists on our Itjilufc really free checking. UldX IISWllS Mt. Vernon, Illinois 4 Member f6lC.
