Why do you want the highest interest rate you can find for your savings account?

When it comes to savings, a higher interest rate is the name of the game. It means a better return on your money. The interest rate is what the bank will pay you for the privilege of keeping your money.

Explanation:

For example, it’s not uncommon to get a .01% interest rate on a traditional savings or checking account, while interest rates on high-yield savings accounts can range anywhere from 1% to 1.35%. Here’s how that difference plays out in real life based on a balance of $10,000 after one year, assuming no additional deposits.

Type of savings account /Interest rate/ Balance after one year (based on

                                                               monthly compounding)

High-yield savings account/1.35%   /$10,135.84

Traditional savings account/.01%     /    $10,001

That’s a difference of about $135 a year — nothing to scoff at — but that gap starts to widen the minute you make monthly deposits to boost your savings.

For example, if you made $100 monthly deposits — the equivalent of $1,200 a year — your year-end monthly balance on the low-interest savings account would be $11,201.06, compared to $11,343.29 with a high-yield savings account. Over time, this adds up.
