    These higher rate bank yields are to encourage new members to join. The rates will change rather fast. The question is if it’s worth your time to keep an eye out for rate variations and then decide to push money around to another higher rate account. It just means more paperwork on taxes.

    I opened a Pibank hysa. It took over one month and a couple of phone calls to get the acct opened. The rate originally was 5.5% but by the time the acct finally was able to be funded the rate dropped to 5%. That felt like a bait and switch. Now that the acct has been funded everything seems smooth but it has been less than one month. Btw with Pibank interest is paid on a mid month cycle on the 15th.

    "For the LONG TERM, Best High Yield Savings & Checking Accounts". That is the video I would love to see.
    Rate chasing makes sense for some people, for others all we want is a consistently "higher than most banks" rate without cumbersome hurdles. By definition, teaser rates just don't last.
    Ally, Capital One, Marcus are the names I usually see near the top of the leader board over the long haul.

They lost out, because I was about to buy several hundred thousand dollars in some cds, because they had better rates at the time than other banks.

If the monetary system collapses, many S&P companies wont. That you can divert large amounts in a click to SPY or similar to ride out a catastrophic crisis is something to consider.

    So in order to get the 5% rate on the Origin Performance Checking account, you have a $36K window. I understand the minimum $4K amount. But you only qualify for 5% "up to" $40K. $40,000? That's less than the average price of a new vehicle. That ridiculously low amount makes me wonder who their target market is, and raises too many red flags. The Santander/OpenBank option is much more desirable. I'm expecting their geographic limitations will eventually be waived.
