The answer is:
The best account used to manage household expenses is a checking account.
Explanation:
The reason why a checking account is better than most savings accounts is with with a savings account you have to go to the bank when it is initially opened to get the money, unless you also have a checking account and a debit card. You would need to be at least 18 years old to open a checking account and it is the best option if you want to primarily pay your household bills.
