When it comes to managing your money, sitting down with a local banker can make a difference for your financial future. CBI Bank & Trust Vice President Retail Banking Manager Tyler Rundle offers best banking practices for consumers:
“Definitely monitor your account. If there is something suspicious, contact your banker or your bank in general. Be cautious of scams. Build a relationship with a trusted banking professional or personal banker who can help guide financial decisions when it comes to saving, borrowing, or investing,” informs Rundle.
“People that come into large sums of money, whether that be an inheritance, a settlement, or some other sort of payout, my advice to you on that is to work with a banker who can understand your needs, talk to you about the benefits of budgeting, debt reduction, and future planning to help you meet your financial goals,” Rundle adds.
Rundle also urges consumers to be aware of ongoing scams and that is if something seems too good to be true, it is probably a scam. If something ever seems suspicious, contact your local banker.
