What kinds of bank accounts are there? There are many kinds of bank accounts. The most common ones are checking accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposit (CDs). Checking accounts let you write checks to pay bills and send people money. You can also pay bills online or use a debit card. Some checking accounts require a minimum balance or a regular automatic deposit of a paycheck or social security check. Some of them pay interest, although sometimes at a very low rate. You have to check the rules for each kind of account, and make sure there is no per check charge. Some market money checking accounts give higher interest, but limit free checks to three per month. With a checking account, it's important to record all your deposits and withdrawals, whether at the bank or at an ATM or using online banking, so you know how much you have available. If you write a check for more money than you have in your account, you may bounce a check and there could be a fee.
Regular savings accounts give some interest on your money and let you withdraw money at any time. They sometimes require a minimum balance. Once you have a bank account, you can cash checks with no fees. Sometimes the bank won't let you get the money right away because they have to make sure the check won't bounce and the money will be deposited into your account. In general, certificates of deposit guarantee an interest rate for a certain amount of time. However, you can't close the account early or withdraw money or there is a penalty. You have to check with the bank to find out all the rules for each kind of account because the banks have different plans

A pharmacist is a person who studies and knows about different kinds of medicine. Pharmacists study in college and then take a state test to get a license. A pharmacy is a store that sells medicine. In the United States, we often call those stores drugstores. Drugstores also sell a lot of other things, like shampoo, crackers, combs, magazines, candy, etc. The part of the drugstore that sells medicine is usually under a sign that says Pharmacy. There are two kinds of medications in the United States. One kind of medicine is over the counter or OTC. You can just go into a drugstore and buy it. However, you have to read the label carefully. The label is in small print and uses a lot of vocabulary, but it has important information. Most OTC medicine labels include information like indications, directions, warnings and drug interaction precautions. The other kind of medication is prescription medication. If you want to buy this medicine, you need a doctor's prescription. You take the prescription to the pharmacy.
The pharmacist fills the prescription. When a company makes a new kind of medicine, they give it a brand name. This name is different from its scientific name. The company takes out a patent. When the patent ends, other companies can make the same drug. However, they don't give it a brand name. Instead, they use the scientific name, and the drug is called a generic drug. The company has to make it safe and follow all the rules of the Food and Drug Administration. Some prescription plans tell you to buy generic drugs instead of brand name drugs because generic drugs are cheaper. You can find information about various medications on the Internet. There are many websites you can visit to get some information about a particular medicine. On all of these sites, to look for drug information you can put the name of the drug in the box and click Search or you can click on the first letter of the drug at the top of the page to find it alphabetically.
