I have a small business and a full time job. As such, I have a few bank accounts.

Today I was moving funds to put in my pocket for the weekend, reimburse money I borrowed from my business when I moved a while back (still not quite back on track ๐Ÿ˜ฌ), some to an investment acct, some to savings.

And I noticed when I'm moving money to savings, or my business, I'm liberal: "$100," "$150." But when I move money to my spending account I become very stingy: "$53.82," "107.64"

I'm not justifying anything it's just an interesting parallel that I noticed earlier today (payday ๐Ÿ˜Ž)

Edit: I really do it to create nice even $xx00.00s in my accts that don't spend money so I can easily track things like interest and stuff. And the pennies all go to the account that pays dollars and cents out, I guess.
