One day I was worried because I needed to buy some materials for a project. I couldn't find those materials, so I decided to ask a friend. He turned on the computer and began searching for the materials I needed. In a few minutes he found all the material, and I saw that next to the photo there were two prices. My friend told me that the lowest price is if someone buys things through the computer, and the highest price is in the store. I got everything I was looking for in just a few minutes using the computer. This is one of the many benefits of using a computer. The benefits of using the computer are online banking, using the computer for research and online shopping. First of all, the use of computer in online banking is very useful nowadays. One of its advantages, for example, is unlimited service both day and night. This is a good advantage because if a person needs the service during the night, he can use it and not worry whether it is open or not. As CIBC, an online company, says, you can check your balance whenever you want, not just when you receive a statement ("The Benefits of Online Banking" 1). Secondly, it is an easy way of payment available to all people. A person does not need to wait until the day he has an appointment. “The person can go every day and pay his debt” (Dulawat 1). Third, checking your account balance is available 24 hours a day. For example, my mother checks her account some days in the morning, others at night. If someone makes a payment using their debit card when they get home, they can check their balance and be in control of what happens with the money (“CIBC” 1). There are many benefits to online banking and one is really interesting. According to Dulawat:Higher interest rate. A... middle of the paper... to balance, search for information or compare prices. I learned new things I can do using the computer that I didn't know before. In my opinion there are more advantages than dangers when a person uses the computer. It all depends on how the person uses the computer. Works Cited Dulawat, Shakti. “Advantages and Disadvantages of Online Banking.” Methodofsolutions.com. June 22, 2010. November 13, 2013.
