I keep as little as possible so if my card gets stolen they can't spend all of my money. I move it to my savings or inactive checking and transfer as needed. Once that gets too big, I move it to my brokerage for investing. My wife's friend in BR got her wallet stolen at La madeline and they rang up $6k in gift cards. I will not let that happen to me.
This is me too. With mobile banking I can access extra cash if I need to, I keep maybe $100 in checking.

Damn. I try to keep just over $5k in my interest checking. I usually get nervous if it dips too low, below $2k. I also have a separate savings, investments, etc.
