Hopefully you are keeping your emergency fund or other savings in an safe account that is making you the highest amount of money. I used to have my savings sitting in my primary banks savings account. It happened to be Bank of America and their savings account yield a measly 0.50%! Most of the other primary banks are yielding a similiar amount.$15,000 in a Bank of America savings account at 0.50% will make you $75 over one year of time!

$15,000 in an ING Direct Orange savings account at 4.15% will make you $622.50 over one year of time!

    I tried online savings accounts at ING, HSBC, Emigrant, and E*Trade, so I would know for sure which one is the best. ING won hands-down. E*Trade was a complete waste of time. I’m a computer guy, and I know how to jump through hoops, but the application was time-consuming and severely limited. Emigrant and HSBC are great, but each has its limits: Emigrant only allows 2 external accounts and HSBC took a while to set up and to link my external accounts. ING was fast, easy and allows me to link up to 3 external accounts, which were processed quickly. Plus, ING allows your friends to get $25 just for opening an account with at least $250. The referrer gets $10. Just shoot me an email if you want a referral link. (gfarnam at gmail). Hope that helps.
