The Room 208 Blog

Bank of America stinks, just so you know. I’ve been using them for years just because they have ATMs all over town, but now I’m checking out High Yield Online Savings. There are much better deals to be had there. It’s your money, after all, and the banks make money off it just by virtue of having it. It hardly seems right that they would nickel and dime you to death with fees on top of it. I poked around the net, and settled on ING Electric Orange Checking Accounts as the best option out there. They pay great rates, and don’t charge those ridiculous fees. I know some people have issues with not being able to meet their bankers in person, but honestly I don’t really care about that. More people should check out internet banks instead of big banks.
