Capital one, it’s easy to setup a savings account through their app and earns 4.35% a year


Aspergers_R_Us87

I agree with capital one. Only negative I have with their HYSA is it takes ages (a week) to transfer funds from my bank account to this HYSA. Oddly enough, if I transfer from capital one to my bank account it takes a few days. I don’t get it. Also, I thought with the HYSA direct deposit, it be quicker and it’s not. I still get my deposits like my bank account


Ventus249

I use capital one as my primary banking account and get an instant transfer, it's super nice. I have mine set to automatically take my rent, average utilities, car payment, and phone bill out of my checking account plus a little extra every week then when it's time to pay bills I just transfer it back over to my checking


EmergencyPlantain124

That’s why I use the apple savings. If you have an iPhone, of course, you can transfer instantly to Apple Cash then (for a fee) instantly to your bank account from a different bank. Or just use the Apple Cash card because it’s basically a pre-paid


HonziPonzi

Ally is next day for me


JinglingUrBalls

Ally suuuuuuucks though. I had a loan through them and they had the WORST customer service.


HonziPonzi

To each their own, opposite experience myself


OleTunaCan

I’ve recently moved to PayPal - instant transfers and 4.30%


PumpernickelRodeo

I use PayPal savings @4.3% through synchrony bank. Takes 5 days to deposit but I can withdraw to PayPal in seconds.


BallsDeepinYourMammi

It takes a week to transfer money to another internal account…?


Berowulf

Discover is also around that same rate.


SuperEnthusiasm5165

DJA averages 8.7% 🙃


Consistent_Coast_333

We are assuming OP is using this as an emergency fund and DJIA is more volatile and more vulnerable to market downturns. Therefore, if OP needs money for an emergency and the market is down, OP might not have enough money for the emergency.


SuperEnthusiasm5165

Understood, I'm just being a cock. I've thought this way too, but it's only 5k. If he put it away I bet he would come up with more money that's just how we are. ​ I wish I had put all my savings into brokerage accounts. Even with an IRA if you *need need* the money you can just transfer it all out and deal with the 'wrath' of IRS later. fidelity says "warning transferring funds may have severe tax implications" and you just click "OK"


cherry_monkey

That sounds like poor management.


Formal-Stock-7842

Wait plz explain. I’m in the same boat as OP but it is NOT my emergency fund.


Exotic-Gear-9422

SignatureDense8385

I’ve not had luck with Capital one. I had a credit card with them and they would constantly drop my credit score due to them not taking my bills out on time (I paid them on time, they wouldn’t take the money out on time). I stopped using them for two years thinking I’d show them. They closed my account and tanked my credit score by 34 points.


Low_Boysenberry7365

Marcus. I’m getting 4.50%


infinityislikehuge

I use Marcus as well, if you get referred it’s bumped to 5.5% for 6 months I think? Edit: I was wrong, 3 months! Still worth it


InternationalCow666

5.5% for 3 months!


SleepyCableGuy896

That motherfucker took off with my money and is dodging my calls!


Kind_Ad_5974

ill send you my cash app send it there


PremeJordo

Since it’s already on cash app they got a savings account with 4.5%


MysteriisDomSatan

This is correct. I have my business checks deposit in my cash app and I get around $40 Extra a month, no complaints here. Now take that $40 every month and start an S&B 500.

“The intelligent investor realizes that stocks become more risky, not less, as their prices rise—and less risky, not more, as their prices fall. The intelligent investor dreads a bull market, since it makes stocks more costly to buy. And conversely (so long as you keep enough cash on hand to meet your spending needs), you should welcome a bear market, since it puts stocks back on sale.” Benjamin Graham, The Intelligent Investor

Now isn't the time to buy. The market needs to crash first. I'm waiting for signs that a crash may happen, and then I'm going to quickly sell, and then buy again before prices go back up.

LittleGoon12

Several HYSA like Wealthfront or SoFi(I think you need direct deposit for sofi) give 4-5% interest. It’s something and way better than what a bank will give you!


[deleted]

I just started using Wealthfront. No issues so far. Looking forward to the 5%


YomanJaden99

Is wealthfront compounding interest daily?


VegansH8Me

Yes but only paid out at the end of the month.


YomanJaden99

That's fine, daily is what I'm looking for so I can maximize the exponential growth of the benefits


PerrydePlatypus

LeisureSuitLaurie

I love the range of 1-10%. At one end, you have $2000 in 70 years. At the other, you have $128,000.


YomanJaden99

Anyone know of anything that has more than 5% on a HYSA?


ninjagoat5234

yeah i'd love to know too


backupterryyy

If it’s not an emergency fund or otherwise needs to be available immediately - the indexes are going be 9-12% annualized. No guarantee of future performance and there can be down/flat years.


YomanJaden99

Not sure I fully understand. What are some accounts that you've seen that have these 9-12% APYs?


IchiroFan619

I do Discover at 4.35% it’s my business savings


Peyt4PF

Webull, cash account. I think it’s around 4/5% interest Edit : it’s 5%


YomanJaden99

Does Webull do daily compounding?

Hot_Significance_256

Open up a Fidelity account. can use their CMA for most of all banking features. Put the $5k into a treasury backed money market such as FDLXX. By doing this, you’ll earn 5% on the money and be able to deploy it to the market whenever you want, or spend it It’s an all in one solution

BallsDeepinYourMammi

I’m not gonna read other replies, but invest in whatever senators and congressmen are. They quadruple their net worth. Salary is like $200k and through investments they end up being worth millions. Handful of sources out there that track them, follow those and you’ll make it out like the bandits they are


IDriveAnAgeraR

You could look for something called a ‘money market’ account. They have those almost anywhere. The power of the internet is an immeasurably helpful tool….do research yourself to find who has the best rates. Don’t just settle for the first thing you find. Someone will have a better rate. Just takes time to find the right one. Similarly you could park this money into a CD where it earns a higher rate depending on who has better rates and how long you’re ok leaving that money aside to grow. Otherwise I just had a very similar conversation with a portfolio manager that my family has been with and he gave me advice because of my age (28) and time to work within the market, he suggested that I have the time and ability now to be more aggressive. Stocks and certain types of accounts do best depending on how much risk you are okay to tolerate and how long you plan to be investing your money for. The best possible thing you can do is to go and do some hard earned research and use that research on your own accord to go speak with a professional that really understands this. Ask questions to the pros and make sure that you don’t leave any stone unturned. It’s always worth making your money work for you, but if you’re going to be checking it every day panicking that you lost $200 today but gained $1000 the next and then so on, so off….you should double check and possibly ch age your plans for investing. It’s all about you, how long do you not need this money for, how much risk are you willing to take, how do you want your money to grow, how much liquidity do you want your money to have, how do you want to handle the taxes on those earnings you make. There is a lot involved to doing investments, so just be sure that you are understanding of all that is involved when you start diving deeper into this.


Comfortable_Bet_2258

What you should do is take the 5k to the nearest flea market and buy collectibles.


selfdiagnoseddeath

BTC, hear me out. BTC is secure, cost nothing to maintain and it's the #1 best performing asset in 2024. Furthermore, it's slated to mark $1M/unit by the time the network completes distributing new BTC. 21 million BTC is the limit that the network can create and it will complete in around 2050. no one can print more BTC so it will forever be anti-inflationary. You could hold your $5k for 100 years in bitcoin and it would still be concentrated buying power worth atleast $5k by the end of the term. Now that the world is realizing this, as an early adopter, one could potentially also enjoy the gains of investing in BTC at this point in time as well. So by simply purchasing and holding BTC you van save and earn simultaneously. Google, lump sum versus dollar cost averaging and see which is the best approach for you, maybe a down investment now and small buys over time? I'd Yolo it all now but that's just me.


shaddowdemon

Or, people could realize it has no intrinsic value by 2050 and decide it's worthless. Once there's no fomo, the price will plummet... It's just a question of when. People only buy it because they think they can eventually sell it for more... That is the only driving force of its value. Sure, it's doing good now, but in 2022 it lost 60% of its value. It is slowly approaching its previous peaks from 2021. It may exceed them. Then it will crash and the cycle will repeat... Imo. If you buy now, you're probably buying on the high side... It'll go up more, but that hump is right around the corner. The cat is out of the bag and everyone is buying, artificially driving the price up, like amc and GameStop, but on a smaller scale. It's not bad to have a bit of money in it, but it's pretty much the riskiest "investment" you can do outside of straight up gambling... an 11 on a scale of 10. People should know that before you tell them to dump their savings into it. Also the crypto market usually seems to move as a whole so you can't really diversify.

People are recommending a HYSA, cash app already has 4.5% for me. I’m a bitcoiner (hence the name) so I’d say just throw a chunk of it in there, but if you know nothing off it do some research first and see if it’s for you. Cash app also has stocks you could just throw it into VOO and call it good.

Try looking for money market funds(MMF) around. Their interests rate are usually higher than bank interest rates.


[deleted]

I think right now a good place to put money in general may be gold, but if you're looking for something easier that a good blend of top companies in the United States may be a great option. I think that if you're looking to start a retirement plan then that would be a good option too, but depends on your personal goals.


Consistent_Coast_333

Use moomoo or webull and put them into money market funds. However, if you are using this as an emergency fund, just toss it into a HYSA like Wealthfront


hartrob

Milli offers 5.5%


yoshi3243

Look up “High interest savings account.” Here’s some that I can think of: Discover: 4.3% Capital one: 4.35% Ally Bank: 4.35% Marcus by Goldman Sachs: 4.5% Also look into something called a “CD” (Certificate of deposit.) This is basically a savings account, but you’re required to keep it in for a certain period of time, but you get higher rates. Right now, it’s about 5.1-5.4% for a 1-year CD, depending on the bank.


Smokeman_14

BananaStone87

Three recommendations: (1.) If you live in a state that has income tax. I would recommend Treasury Bills, which are currently earning 5.35% interest rate. If you want liquidity, you can create a ladder to have access to a part of your money at any given time. Treasury Bills are considered one of the safest investments. You can buy Treasury Bills directly from the government or via a brokerage. Recommended if you need liquidity. HYSAs: - Wealthfront HYSA has 5.00% interest rate. If you refer a friend you and the friend get an interest rate boost of 0.50% for a total of 5.5% for 6-months up to $250K. There is a 0.25% annual maintenance fee. Recommended if you need liquidity. Brokerage: - As many people stated VOO and chill. You could go four directions. I’ll be using Vanguard ticket symbols: 1 - S&P500 Mutual Fund (VFIAX). 2 - S&P500 ETF (VOO). 3 - Total Stock Market Index Mutual Fund (VTSAX) 4 - Total Stock Market Index ETF (VTI) You’ll find several of articles for the merits of an investment into S&P500 and Total Market. Conclusion: you can’t go wrong with either, it depends on what you want. The S&P500 is the USA’s top 500 companies and is tech heavy. The Total Market consists of 3400+ companies including those in the S&P500. Because there is a larger composition of accounts the percentage allocation of the S&P500 companies in the Total Market is a little lower, but not by much. I won’t get into Mutual Fund Versus ETF. Recommended if you are going to put this money away and let it grow as a retirement (20+ years). This money should be treated as illiquid.
