explanation on how CD accounts and high-interest counts really work?

high interest
mums_the_word asked:


i’m looking to start saving some money, but instead of having it generate a moderate interest in a regular bank, i was wondering how exactly a CD account or a high-interest account (like ING or some other equivalent) really works? how much more do you REALLY earn with the money in there?

i don’t know bank-terms or anything like that, so if someone could explain it to me simply?? thanks =)

When you keep part of your earning safely to meet futuristic needs, it is said that you are saving.

There are many factors that necessitates saving and it ranges from the purchasing of an automobile to acquiring a home, whatever the case might be, it is always good to save.

The list of the different saving techniques can not be exhausted, but you can choose the one that suits you most from the different methods explained here:

1. One of the major ways of keeping money for futuristic uses is to start an account for saving. This method has to do with putting some amount in your account which you can collect at any time. The balance left in the account is used to calculate the rate of interest added. the savings account system can be used to save money fro present or futuristic uses.

2. You can also decide to use an interest based current account which gives you an advantage of withdrawing with cheques or ATM. you have to always leave aparticular balance in the account daily; so that it can yield interest.

3. There is another type of saving that will perfectly suit you if a long term saving is what you want – this is the insured account of money markets. Since it is for a long term basis, the financial institution give a high interest rate. It is advisable for one to put a huge sum in accounts like these to incur maximum profit.

4. Then, one can also lend money to financial institutions for a specified period and after this period the money is repayed with interest. The duration of the loan determines the rate of interest added.

There are two major types of financial institutions to save with, you can either use the banks or Insurance company, depending on your plan. The interest rate of the latter seems better, you should investigate before choosing the one that offers a better rate.

The most important fact one should consider while saving, is that, a long term saving method should be used when futuristic projects are planned, this way the money is not tampered with. Always do a good search to find out which financial institution offers the best before making your choice.
