I thought everyone knew that putting your password on the side of the monitor wasn't safe, you have to put it under your keyboard where it can't be seen. LOL.

I had one of these today. We had designated direct withdrawal from a checking account. The IRS tried to take it from a Savings Account that didn't have the funds. Client came in and because of what I read this morning on this board, we went to Judy's link and used Direct Pay; easy as could be. The client was so relieved. He said that he hadn't slept at all last night over this. Thanks to all of you who contributed your experiences. Before today, I didn't know about Direct Pay. This board is the BEST.

I am thankful for every day that I get to open my eyes. At my age, some of that is the result of routine exams. For my husband, as well. Eight years ago, when I had breast cancer, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Both were caught very early. Last summer, I had not been breathing well for over two years before it got to be too much for me. The result was 7 days in the hospital and I am lucky to be here. The hospital Dr said that I had been sick for a long time and would have a long recovery. I am just now turning the corner and will soon be driving again for the first time since last June. I survived another tax season and am considering another one because I don't believe that my work on Earth was finished. The medical practice certainly can be annoying, but it can save your life.

I had a strict rule that passwords were never to be written down, except in our password protected spreadsheet.

Like Margaret, it's just me here. Anyone trying to access my stuff would need to get into my house - past locks and alarms - then into my computer (password protected) then into my secure drive (a different password) or my online portal (yet another password). WiFi is totally locked down, hidden, inaccessible. How is adding more "authentication" crap going to help keep anyone's stuff more secure? Answer: it won't. What makes good sense in a multi-person office, or large corporation, is simply stupid in a one-person operation and leads to the idiocy of passwords on post-it notes stuck to the side of the monitor.

Oil rich areas West Texas and Eastern New Mexico. Northwestern Nevada is barren north of Reno (pretty, but not very populated) and except for weed growers, I don't know who is getting rich up there. Wyoming has some cattle and the price of beef is high right now, but ranching does not normally produce consistent high income (because they always need new trucks!). Curious indeed.

I looked at it when it first came out some years ago. It was pretty basic and wouldn't do what I needed. It has an online reputation of over promising and under delivering. Frankly, I am surprised it is still around

My bank has that option for certain accounts, but the account holder must set up that feature, kind of like setting up the online bill pay or online banking for statements. The account I have doesn't have that feature available, and I don't have a savings account there anyway because their products aren't worth investing in.

Also, you need to whom it was rented, a related party or a friend?
