The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has nothhig to do with banking – are you talking about moving money from an IRA or 401k to a NON-IRA or 401k account (that will trigger taxes and possibly early withdrawal penalties if you are under59-1/2

and money market accounts are paying maybe 0.3% if you are lucky – makes no sense

Beats me. He's got two kids, so he must be able to get it up sometime!

Credit Unions are not FDIC insured. When comparing banks, I use bankrate.com, they compare interest rates on savings accounts, credit cards, and mortgages. Some accounts require you to have $5,000 or $50,000 to get the best rate.

If you don't have one yet, you should look into opening an IRA and investing the money you would otherwise put in the savings account. Depending on your risk tolerance, you can find investments that meet your needs.

I thought CitizensBank out of Vancouver was offering 4.15% on savings accounts, similar to ING but with a better rate (ING is offering 3.65% right now on savings).

Edited to add: Citizens Bank "Ultimate Savings Account"

https://www.citizensbank.ca/Personal/Products/BankAccounts/UltimateSavingsAccount/

with an interest rate of 4%.

Interesting…The follow up will also be interesting. Does she pay a gift tax? Will she be able to pay the property taxes? Will she have to put down deposits to have her heat and phone turned on since she obviously has no credit or bad credit. It takes a few months to have the deed recorded and put on line to view. I wonder if this publicity stunt is going to rely on the average person's short term memories as they hang on to Obama's gesture of kindness rather then check out the facts.

Yes, I obviously do, that was part of several of my answers concerning the financial debacle and an excellent analysis by Barry Grey of the World Socialist Web Site, my preferred site for straight talk

The article tells it like it is. The Republican Party is finished because its a party of inbred, southern whites who want to wage war on anyone who isn't like them. They got power in the South (the Nixon Strategy) by recruiting racists. Now, Americans have grown past them. They are history, and they don't even understand that they are impotent and irrelevant.

Lobbyists got Obama elected.

Obama has more Lobbyists in His Administration than in any other Administration in the History of the US.

All Corruption.

Not "Hope & Change". It's Rope & Chains.
