<prompt> Human: So far Ive been keeping my banking statements from both my checking and savings account since 2013. Since the paper stack is getting quite large, Im thinking of shredding most of them maybe keep a year or two of records. I cant think of a reason Id need to refer to them, especially the older ones. Is there any reason to hold on to them?  <response>: I dont keep bank statements at all. The information is all available electronically anyway, in case someone needs it. And I dont see why someone would, unless this is a business account.
