8、week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. Before that I looked in the phone book since I had no clue about any banks around here or where they were located. I went to the bank and made decisions for myselfwhether to have a checking or savings account a

9、nd whether or not to get a MASTER card.Friendly people: thats another aspect I like about college. On my first day (and even now) people were nice to me.

Or we can ask our parents for most of the money and earn
