I currently bank at Wells Fargo and am satisfied with that, but I have been hearing good things about banks that are online based.
For example, ING and etrade . Looks like you can earn ~4% interest on savings and checking in some cases. Anyone have any experience with this? -------------------- Don't sweat the petty, pet the sweaty.

(directed to impala)its important to have a savings for emergency expenses and to save for travel/small luxuries. If you have all your money in investments its hard to do with anything with it. Ideally you should have some liquid investments such as savings/MMAs
personally I use Capital One's MMA account. I get 5% APY which is pretty good and Capital One is a very stable bank. |
