Ok, so, let's say that you live in the middle of nowhere, Alaska, and that there are no banks in town.
or within 500 miles of you.
Let's say that you're going to town, and a friend asks if you'll write them a check, and they'll give you the money in cash, if you'll stop by and deposit the check in their bank.
Sure! you say. No problem!
Then, let's say you ask your wife, to make sure its cool, and she ok's it.
The guy gives you the $400, YOU (this is important) write a check, and you pocket the money.
Now, let's say its the end of the month, and your wife is completely baffled about there is $400 less in the checking account than there should be.
And then you remind her of the check for the friend.
When your wife stares at you and says, "no..that was out of YOUR account. YOU kept the money," why, exactly, would you be confused about why she is irritated?
Gah.
WTF?
