I messed up. I have been stupid with my finances for the past 3 years, as someone who comes from the kind of background I come from it was stupid thing to do

One of the mistakes we make is using the same banks we opened as students, without realizing it might be a costly mistake

One day i sat down and calculated all the monies I had spent on back transfers, card charges, plus how much value my money was losing just by sitting in a bank and I realized I may end up exactly where people in my background were: Struggling to make ends meet, one of my fears

At the end of the day, I am losing money just by keeping it in the traditional banks we know.

Some said "invest" which is good advice, but you can't invest everything you have, you still need to keep some in the banks to move around and stuff.

So for 5 months, I started trying out new apps, at one point, I had up to 8 bank accounts.

Then a friend told me about #BranchApp and it caught my attention, I could transfer money from one bank to another without any charges. Good.

NO stamp duty, no charge for SMS alerts,

I could also pay for light and other bills without being charged 100 extra, I pay them for FREE! Might seem small to you o, but these small fees end up becoming something large at the end of one year, do the calculations yourself and be shocked!

I downloaded it immediately!

I downloaded it here: bit.ly/2RedoFD You should get it now, I don cut that soap for you. If your background no too bam like that, manage the small in your hand.
