Is an Interest-Bearing Account Right for Me?

According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, interest-earning checking accounts are typically good for people who:

• Carry large account balances
• Spend less than they earn
• Keep a stockpile of cash or funds
• Are retired and want a higher-interest product than most of today’s investment accounts
• Pay attention to their finances and can meet the criteria needed to open an interest-earning checking account
