Knowing which banks are the most popular across the country is interesting. But even beyond that, it can be a valuable way to learn about new banks and find the best fit for you so you can grow your wealth.
Regardless of which bank you choose, make sure they aren't overcharging you for unnecessary fees. And if you have a lower account balance on a weekly basis, make sure you aren't going to be charged for going below a certain minimum.
