I have a high-interest savings account open, which is where I put all my savings into — dur. The only problem is that when I sign on to internet banking, I can see all my accounts listed there. A few times in the past I actually took money out from my savings account to pay off my credit cards. Well, most of the time it’s because I transferred too much into my savings without realizing I need that money for my credit cards.
I read some tips online about setting up automatic transfers to transfer x amount of money from your cheque into your savings, everytime you get a paycheque. This way you can fool your self to think that you have less money than you actually do. The only problem is that the tip only works if you’re transferring to another bank, like ING. Since I see my money listed there anyway, it’s almost pointless.
That’s where Greasemonkey comes in! Using some JavaScript, I hid my Savings account from the accounts view. Of course, I put in at link that I can click on if I do need to see it. I think it’s going to work well. :)
