A good savings account
Just an FYI for anyone looking to put together a high yield savings account. I recently got a credit card from Capital One Bank. After a while using the card (decent service and good rates) I started looking at their other options. They offer a no minimum balance, no fee 2.5% APY savings account. 2.5%, for those that don't know is QUITE high for savings, especially with no minimums (meaning things like CDs and the like). I know my CU that I use for savings/checking only offers 0.5%, and on savings only (minimum balance of $2500 to get interest on checking, even the 0.5% interest).
At any rate, I won't link, because I don't want this to appear to be an advert. But for anyone looking, they are worth checking out.
If anyone has other good savings banks (preferrably nation-wide of worldwide) by all means reply to this thread with the info.
