Smartl phones are really good for depositing checks to the bank. Now
I
don't have to be afraid the guard will shoot me by mistake.

You must really have an off brand bank if you don't drive by a branch
every time you are out and the ATM is really easy to use if the Covid
has the lobby closed. I assume if I internet banked I could drop a
check on my scanner and deposit it tho. The reality is I only cash
about a dozen checks a year and most come quarterly (dividends).
Four trips a year to the bank is not a burden

Make it real easy for yourself; have your dividends ACH deposited to
your checking account. No more worries about the check getting lost or
stolen in the mail. No misplacing/losing it at home. No more needing
to make a trip to an ATM or the bank. And, you have access to your
money sooner.
Since they might sit in the drawer for a month I doubt I really care
how soon I have access to the money. I don't float with my mouth so
close to being underwater.
I like seeing the checks and sometimes I just give them to my wife.
She likes that.

You folks act like I make a special trip to the ATM,
I drive by it 3 or 4 times a week.

Still makes more sense to have it show up in the
checking account completely automatically, dinosaur.

Most of my dividends go to the brokerage account
but I still have some shares I am holding personally.
Those are the ones I get checks for.

Maybe I am not sure where I want it. Like I said, sometime I give them
to my wife.
