COMPLETED - #23 Open a Personal Savings Account

After I received my first paycheck last week, I had a few things I wanted to do with it. One was take G out to dinner for our six month-aversary and as a thank you for everything he's done for me since we met. Sadly, that didn't happen since he has an injury so it will be put off until next week. Another was get my hair cut. Again, that didn't happen yet and is scheduled for next week (so another item checked off the list then). I also did a little much needed shopping to supplement the wardrobe for work and therefore now have 3 bags of clothes to be donated sitting in the back of the truck. The most important task I had though was to open a savings account. I've had them in the past, but never actually managed to keep money in them. I think I've learned a lot though from my self-imposed poverty this last year and want to try again. So I did it, I opened a personal savings account with a starting balance of $35. It isn't much, but I'm at least hoping to have a few hundred by Christmas.
