High Yield Savings Account options?

[dirtrulz]

We have some sort of savings account through chase I think. Last the wife told me it was around 5 percent, and it works like a regular savings account, might be worth a look.

5% -- no way ; try 0.05%

Apparently you do not have the same account with them, I do know how to read and know the difference between 5 an .05. So unless you are going through our mail to look at our accounts, you have no idea what you are talking about. Do you honestly think the idiot behind the counter at your local bank knows all the programs their bank offers. Do some real research and call the main office to get some real answers.

Dude...you're not getting 5% on any type of bank savings account.

American Express has a high yield account - it pays .85 on $10K, according to their website you can earn $434 over 5 years with $10K invested.

5% cash back is all I found --- https://creditcards.chase.com/freedom/Activate.aspx

Far cry from a 5% Yield on Savings

Chase is paying .15% on savings balances over $1M. Chase Rates

CDs aren't much better. .9% on a 120 month CD with a balance of $1,000 to $10,000. Chase Rates

Yeah, and that is a credit card where they're probably nailing you for 20 percent interest so they're still clearing 15% minus admin costs.
