| This is why I always tell people, if you're facing a lawsuit, stop using a checking account/savings account. They are not safe places to put your money. Social Security offers a debit card which is safe from creditors where they will direct deposit the money every month. It is an alternative for people who don't have checking accounts, or can't use them. You can then withdraw the cash from the card to pay various expenses by money orders or you can use the debit card for shopping at any store that accepts debit cards. |
