3. Using Your Personal Financial Plan sheet 11, what financial service would benefit Jamie Lee now, as she had legitimate checks written to cover her monthly bills that are now in excess of the available checking account balance due to the theft? Jamie Lee Jackson, age 26, is in her last semester of college and is anxiously awaiting graduation day, which is just around the corner! She still works part-time as a bakery clerk, has been sticking to her budget the past two years, and is on track to accumulate enough money for the $9,000 down payment she needs to open her cupcake café within the next two years.

Jamie Lee is still single, shares a small apartment with a friend, and continues to split all of the associated living expenses, such as rent and utilities. Unfortunately, she now has to seriously consider finding a place of her own.

One evening, after returning to the apartment after a long shift at the bakery, Jamie learned that her roommate had a couple of friends over earlier in the evening. As Jamie went to her room, she noticed that her top desk drawer had been left open and her debit/ATM card, as well as her checkbook and Social Security card, were missing. She immediately contacted the authorities, and the police instructed her to notify her financial institution immediately.

But it was late Saturday night, and Jamie thought she had to now wait until Monday morning. Unfortunately, within no time, Jamie found that her checking account had been emptied!

Jamie Lee’s luck worsened, as she had paid many of her monthly bills late last week. Her automobile insurance, two utility bills, and a layaway payment had all been paid for by check. Her bank almost immediately began sending overdraft alerts through her smartphone for the emptied checking account.Current Financial Situation Bank Accounts:
