And we’re not the only one’s holding a contest! MoneyNing is giving away 2 $15 Starbucks gift certificates! If I had one it would make a nice treat for my wife and I.

My first account was opened up by my grandparents when I turned 18. They put in money they had been saving for me. It was back when a brick and mortar account gave a decent interest rate and I loved seeing what I earned every month!
