    My online savings account just dropped my interest rate 0.10%. You'd think it would have gone up. I'm eagerly awaiting higher interest rates for savings.

    Funny how that seems to work, give it a week or early next year and see if it adjusts upward.

    I'm hoping so. It was listed as 1.2% when I checked the Highest Interest Rates 2015 list, but when I went to sign up it had dropped to 1.1% a month or two before I signed up. Now it's down to a flat 1%. Hoping to see a nice increase as these rates go up.

    The only people to benefit from this rate rise are the Federal Reserve Bank and the central government. The retail banks do not benefit. You do not benefit. It is a hidden tax. You are sending more of your hard earned money to Washington. I feel like I am at a party of the Third Reich around April 25, 1945. What are they buying with your money? More of these?

    I don't see how this interest rate hike affects me.

    Of course I realize that. I just facetiously made that comment instead of explaining that while a rate hike might not be ideal for a lot of people, it more or less won't affect many others; so at least it's not the end of the world.
