How do you like to store bank and financial statements?



Do you keep them in the envelopes they came in?



File folder?



Loose leaf binder?



Other?



I think you'll find an answer in alt.financial.anal.recordkeeping

Back in the '60s Peter Townsend, in a book entitled "Up the Organization," wrote: "In a dispute with a taxing authority, your records will convict you irrespective of your guilt."

Ask yourself: "Can my current situation get any better by examining old records?"

Then ask: "Can it get worse?"

Anyway, I file my records in the trash. Under several layers of used kitty litter.
