It's quite simple why rates are climbing with rising imports and falling exports, the FED is obviously to be blamed for banking crisis. Something will eventually break if they keep the quantitative tightening and higher interest rates. Is this really a good time to have some savings in stocks?

@lolitashaniel2342 Ай бұрын

first austerity, then brexit, now widespread bank failures. .always do your own research & speak to a license advisor before thinking about putting your money into these crazy markets

@grego6278 Ай бұрын

Exactly, most youtubers said the market would be fine few months back, but it's been a major downturn. Luckily, since the rona-outbreak in 2020, I've avoided the drawback of trial and error by simply following professional guidance. I'm semi-retd and work only 7.5 hours weekly, with nearly $1m ROI after subsequent investments to date.

I've been using Betterment and LOVE the cash returns. My end of year goal is to figure out how I can strategize where allocations are to create high passive returns monthly so I can know I have a buffer if the economy is shitty (as we all have experienced lately). I'd actually LOVE to have you do a video comparing the pros and cons of keeping a traditional 401k or moving your money into on of these HYSA vehicles. Currently 401k aren't awesome and I've been strongly wondering whether to switch it up strictly from a rate return standpoint. Especially since the HYSAs are also compounding returns. Thank you!

I don't disagree, but you get that interest on your checking as well, which you don't with ally. You literally just have to direct deposit $1 to get the higher amount, and most businesses that you play with your direct deposit enough that you could easily do that.

@heidikamrath1951 4 ай бұрын

Like you: BofA “platinum.” Moved a lot of money over to raisin last summer when it was 5.25 (?)% and it just keeps going up. Each time the rates change, I get an email notification. Added a big check at Xmas time and deposited first into BofA. The teller wanted to know what I was going to do with the money. Huh? None of his business! But I told him I was going to move it to raisin as soon as it cleared. His eyebrows went up when I told him the interest rate. It did take a few days to clear both BofA and then raisin, so the same day stuff is just a dream for me. Meanwhile, my interest earnings are super exciting! Take THAT, BofA!
