I occasionally read snippets of financial advice online, and there's one thing that keeps coming up:  Make sure you look over your bank and credit card statements to check to see if you were overcharged or charged twice or anything like that.  To me, this is probably the stupidest advice I could possibly read.  Ever since I opened a bank account, I've always kept track of my finances.  I didn't know there was a choice.  Perhaps it's my unending cheapness, or maybe it's my general distrust of human beings, especially when it comes to my money.  My opinion is that if you're stupid enough to not track your finances, you deserve to have your money taken from you don't go crying to your mommy when something gets screwed up. #money
