Many banks have checking accounts that charge you fees if you don’t maintain a certain balance or some other criteria. Bank Of America Regular Business Checking Accounts allow you to avoid fees by using your debit card just once per month. I have about 10 different business accounts without reasonable opportunities to use any of them much less all of them.

I got a free credit card reader from Square and now I get a reminder from HassleMe approximately every 30 days which tells me to charge my debit cards. It takes me a few minutes and costs just a few pennies to charge a dollar to card and save myself $170 in fees each month.

About The Author

In 2006, I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. Crohn's is an incurable disease of the digestive tract. My case was severe, and required over a dozen daily medications and several hospital visits. After reaching a personal low point in hospital, I decided he would do everything in my power to strengthen my by then weak body. Through a combination of yoga, nutrition, natural supplements and rigorous exercise (Ironman and Crossfit) i was able to fight back the symptoms of Crohn's until I was finally able to suspend my medication. Eventually I was declared free of all traces of the 'incurable' disease, and competed in Ironman France in June of 2011. I has since spoken at seminars and at a regional TED Talk about my struggle against a seemingly insurmountable opponent. Through the process of data collection, self tracking, and analysis, I helped develop Less Doing. This was a way of dealing with the daily stresses of life by optimizing, automating, and outsourcing all of my tasks in life and business. Now I focus on Achievement Architecture, helping individuals be more effective at everything.
