Yep, like this one, though it could earn more in bonds or investments.
Low-interest loans are great, too: if they don’t need to be repaid right away, they can be leveraged to earn back more than their cost.

bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 1 day agoYou have an account that earns interest?
Last time I saw that was as a child.
But then again I was able to get a loan for my house at ridiculously low interest, so I’m not complaining too much.

HYSA exist. My checking account earns a pittance.

You can occasionally find high interest checking accounts too, but they tend to have weird strings attached

Well think of it like this. I keep an amount in my checking account (basically no interest) to cover the credit card bills. Extra I move out to an online savings account that does have a ddcent interest rate. By having a date when the CC bill comes due, I can check once a month (7 days before due) and move money if needed to cover the bill. So while the checking has practically no interest, I was getting close to 5% on the savings for a while. Still a far stretch from the 12% cds I got as a kid, but it’s something.
