I've bounced around between a few different places.
They all seem to pull this bait n' switch. ING did it, started off with a 4.5% rate, then it dropped down to 2%. So then I found dollarsavingsdirect, 4% rate. Now it's dropping, down to 3.2% already in less than 6 months since they started. Maybe I should switch to the bed matress savings plan. |

Plus that shit is taxed, so if you're in a 30% tax bracket, it's more like a 2% return.

I've had an ING account for quite a while now. Rates go up, rates go down.

Hell, you don't need a mattress. A really small throw pillow will do.

But you pay it off sooner
So that balloon payment down the road won't be so bad. |
