Learning to Use an ATM in Early 70’s
July 29th, 2010
My grandfather was in his early 70s before he first used an ATM, and I do not think he has ever used a drive-thru window at the bank. He believes in eye balling people when doing banking business. So growing up, I knew my way around the bank after tagging along with him. I watched him cash a check for cash, which he called his “walking around money”. We rolled coins and deposited them into my grandparent’s account. Of course I loved it, because I always got a lollipop from the teller. Little did I know then that I was actually learning about how banking works, something I now hope to pass along to my own kids.
