...you had a 14% T-bill
"My parents gave me a government T-bill that paid 14% (and I accepted it in my 1970's pant suit.)" — Kathryn Hauer

...you checked the bank for your balance
"You actually had to go into the bank to find out your balance if you didn’t record your checks in the check register. Added 'ager' – the checkbook had no duplicate copy behind it either, so if you didn’t write it down or remember it, you had to wait 'til it cashed or bounced." — Kathryn Hauer
...you had stock certificates
"You had to find a safe place to file your stock certificates and if you lost them, you were out of luck. " — Kathryn Hauer
