<prompt> Human: My parents were never really good with money, so Im trying to learn from that. I recently opened a savings account with Chase, since I already have a checking account with them. I wanted a place to put money where I wont think about it as much as my checking account Im an out-of-sight out-of-mind type of person. However, every time I check my Chase checking balance, it automatically tells me my Chase savings balance too. I havent spent any yet, but this reminds me every time I make a purchase oh yeah I do have that money too..., which is exactly what I wanted to prevent. Is there any reason I shouldnt open a second checking account with say, Wells Fargo, and leave that debit card at home in a drawer for emergency expenses?Assistant: Or just open a savings account with another bank to make it harder to access.Human: Wouldnt this make it harder to access if I actually had an emergency though? Im still in the stages of building up my emergency fund rather than more substantial savings. Haha.  <response>: You should have at least 1 months cash in your checking account and personally I think that plus credit cards plus being able to access the money in a few days is more than enough for any emergency.
