I'm getting 4% APY from Treasury Bills. I stopped playing the APY rate chasing game with banks; if you don't need liquidity just buy 3 month Treasury Bills and get much better return.
Ahh someone else with a brain. This "deal" equates to a 4.06% return... Above 3M T-bills but below 4 - 6M T-bills

Quote from mpkb :
Well, if CD rates skyrocket, you could leave the 1% behind and just go for the CD. Or just wait for the minimum holding period, then do the CD. I don't think interest rates are heading down anytime soon, but just my unqualified opinion as a non-professional.

definitely not going down until well after inflation shows it can start trending down. and that might need to be at least Feb - march. As well as if/when recession hits.

Thanks. So one percent.

My reply is... (profanity) Go (profanity).

Inflation is hitting us hard and fast. Putting our dollars in these vehicles is like putting our grown vegetables outside to rot or be eaten by insects. Giving your assets to the eaters will not increase your portfolio.

If you can use your assets to improve your productivity, that is the best investment. The next best is to buy now the things you will use later. It is not a good investment, but is is a safe one. Then think about things your neighbors will need and you can trade with them. This is not great, but better than nothing.
The US isn't that bad. Besides money is all relative and right now most of the world is struggling.

1000 on 100000 in 90 days isn't a bad deal at all. After that you can reinvest it. In your case that might be water tanks and rations.

Wouldn't this effectively be around ~6.35% APY interest for the 90 days?

Just heads up, my experience with capital one was not one expects. I think an year back, I had done a promo where I was getting 300 to 350 back, I never got and when inquired they said I never used the promo (go figure). After several escalations and what not, I was finally given that promo bonus but boy I learned my lesson. Question you you'all is "how would you prove you did or did not apply the promo code"?. I don't think you will get any email saying so

But it's actually more than 3.35% apy right?
Since we are getting that 1% in 90 days.. not 1-year.

Please excuse my paper napkin math

Planning to move my SOFI balance once the that promotion matures at end of November.
NO, not getting the payout in 90 days. It will earn the bonus in 90 days but not be paid for another 60 days. But go into the sign up process to see a table that seems to show it will take upto 6 months to get the bonus money. In summary, this offer seems to be conflicted resulting uncertainty of all constraints. In the end, this bank has failed to provide a simple and clear statement. THE BONUS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE IN 90 DAYS.

Doesn't matter where you live or what you do. It's about how much you can save

Quote from DamaniBrown :
Annualized Yield = 100 / 10000 * (365/90) * 100 = 4.06%

You're better off buying 6M US treasuries at 4.423% and get a better return. Who in the world falls for this stuff? Smart move on the bank to arbitrage returns. Brilliant.
Quote from DamaniBrown :

You should probably check your numbers before calling others brainless. Using actual bond pricing from Fidelity as of this morning, here's what I came up with:

$10,000 3-Month T-Bill @ 4.11% YTM, simple interest/zero coupon = $10,127.51
$10,000 Capital One @ 2.35% APY + $100 for 90 days, compounded daily, + $100 bonus = $10,158.92

$10,000 6-Month T-Bill @ 4.35% YTM, simple interest/zero coupon = $10,204.08
$10,000 Capital One @ 2.35% APY for 180 days, compounded daily, + $100 bonus = $10,218.19

For those who don't have or don't want a brokerage account, this offer comes out ahead on both 3- and 6-month timelines.

Would I go through the effort? No, but I also wouldn't call someone brainless for taking the path which ultimately lands them the greater return.

Quote from desitoyota :
Savings account is not a vehicle for investment. If you want to stay afloat of the inflation then stock or real estate could be better option.
This is to park your emergency fund. I prefer to keep 12 months of emergency funds in liquid cash and HYSA is the safest option. The rule of emergency fund is : what matters here is the return of the principal not the return on the principal.
I am not a financial adviser or any professional to give any financial advise. This is my personal opinion only . This is not a financial advise of any kind.
Stocks and real estate you say? These work only when printers are running.

This would be >6.35% APY if you're chasing rates (90 days).
