Not so much for the ave joe penny pincher. This… Who the fuck puts money into a savings account these days to actually make money… If your not even making 1%, it costs you more in gas to drive to the bank to make a deposit.

And be set when your 50 when your buddy’s are still putting money in their savings account making 200 a year. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/saving-money-cutting-costs/265835)._
