Americans’ credit card debt levels have just notched a new, but undesirable, milestone: For the first time ever, they’ve surpassed $1 trillion, according to data released Tuesday by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Where are you getting 5% interest?!?
Ally is at 4.25% straight up saving account Vanguard Treasury Money Market VUXSS is at 5.15% right now.
There are a few online only banks that are above 5% also.
Fidelity has a number of funds around 5%. A fidelity brokerage account auto invests in SPAXX, which is 4.96%. SPRXX is 5.02%. These accounts are insured, and the cash is completely liquid, a debit card tied to this account works normally, for example.
When you already have a bunch of money you get higher rewards and pay lower interest so your money flows through their balance sheets.
You don’t pay amy interest if you pay in full within 30 days of the statement date.
