Crazy Money Day – $8 million ATM Error

It’s Crazy Money Day!

A volunteer fireman withdrew $200 from an ATM machine and discovered his balance was at $8 million! He was expecting a stimulus check deposit, but not that much! The ATM printing error resulted in him saying, “You go from being a millionaire one second then back to being broke again. But hey, once you’re poor you don’t have anywhere else to go but up.”

To gain financial control, recognize that impulse shopping is a budget buster. Buy only what you need to survive and go on a ‘dollar diet’, saving every dollar possible. Work diligently, save those dollars, and one day you’ll smile at the real balance on your ATM receipt.
