    Time to Save again...

    Being as we never had money to save prior to our BK as we were always unable to catch up.... After our BK we are in a little different siutation.
    We are currently looking to move some funds from our safe to a savings account to start earning interest...

    Our local bank has a Saving that offers 2.0% interest on balances over $5k.
    ING has a variable 2.75% APY, no minimum balance.

    We have $5k to get started, so my question is about the variable 2.0%. How exactly do the variable rates work?

    When the fed raises rates your savings will go up. When the fed lowers rates your savings rates will go down.

    Check Credit Unions in your area. I have a checking account with a 6.15% APY in Southern Florida. I had one with 6% in Michigan last year.
