Hey kids! Have you ever heard of savings accounts? They're like piggy banks for grown-ups, but they give you a little extra money for keeping your money there! Recently, interest rates on savings accounts have been changing. This means how much extra money you get changes too.
- Banks are offering high-yield savings accounts.
- These accounts pay more interest than regular accounts, sometimes as much as 4.5%!
- Interest rates are going down because the Federal Reserve is changing its rates.
- Experts think rates will keep going down, so now might be a good time to open a high-yield account if you have some money to save.
