If anyone lives in the Central Florida area, this is the best deal around for sure! You get 4.32% on your CHECKING account! You also get all ATM fees refunded.
To qualify, all you need to is:
1) Use e-statements
2) Have at least one direct deposit OR debit
3) Use your debit card (can be used as debit or Visa) 12 times per month.
If you don't do those, you still get 0.25% and free checking!

When the USA comes tumbling down... I want immediate access to my money in the form of cash morning, noon or night!
Hey, just got this flier and thought I would share. Church Development Fund (CDF) is offering 5.15% APY for a 15 month CD or 5.5% APY for 22 month CD, both with a $5k minimum and offer only until July 31. But, it's better than most right now and certainly better than a bank.
Just thought I'd share.

Anyone heard of Patelco or had any good/bad experiences with them? I might as well give them $1000 if they're legit.
From the website:
"The purchase of CDF securities is subject to risks, which are described in CDF’s Offering Circular. This is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy Church Development Fund securities. Such an offer is made only by an Offering Circular and only in those states where the Church Development Fund securities may lawfully be offered or sold. CDF securities are not F.D.I.C. or S.I.P.C. insured nor are they bank deposits."

Folks who fear that the US dollar will tank should consider buying a foreign-denominated CD. Check out http://www.everbank.com/001Currency.aspx The way it works is you buy a CD of another currency with USD. The CD is held in the currency of your choice, and grows in that currency. When you cash out, it's converted back to USD automatically.
Pay off your highest interest rate loans FIRST, then rebuild your cushion (6months minimum) in one of these interest bearing accounts.
Take all your money out of the bank and go to Vegas. Go to the roulette table and put it all on red. Pays 100% back on your money. When you win, pick up your money and head for the airport and go home immediately..
