About High-Yield Savings Accounts

High-yield savings accounts offer significantly higher interest rates than traditional savings accounts, often 10-50x more. These accounts are FDIC-insured (up to $250,000) and provide easy access to your money while earning competitive returns.

Key Benefits:

  • Higher Interest Rates: Currently 4-5% APY vs 0.01% for regular savings
  • FDIC Insured: Your deposits are protected up to $250,000
  • No Lock-In Period: Access your money anytime without penalties
  • Compound Interest: Earn interest on your interest monthly

Example Calculation:

With a $10,000 initial deposit and $500 monthly contributions at 4.5% APY for 10 years, you'll earn $21,269 in interest. That's $17,143 more than a regular savings account!
