Let me take my $100,000 I have kicking around in shoe boxes, and put it into a HIGH yield savings account (.9% APY).
So, that made me $900 a year! WAHOOOO!
Or, you could pay Wayne to find you a WW2 air compressor, then sell it for a $1200 profit, and give him a $300 payment for cunsulting fees… then make that money in a weekend.
High yield accounts work great for bill gates. Not so much for the ave joe penny pincher.
