    Great recommendation for students. I wish I had my ING account when I went to college as it would have given me some additional income. Not much, but when you’re in school, every bit helps.

    With the savings rate lower than a past few years, it won’t grow as fast, but something saved is better than none.

    Hi – thanks so much for the review of the online savings accounts – I hope you have room for one more. I work with ShoreBank – a longstanding institution that has a competitive online savings account at 3.5% interest. The account has no monthly fees, a $1 minimum, online and phone customer service and you can find more details here: http://shorebankdirect.sbk.com/ If you are interested in promoting good causes – ShoreBank is a great option. ShoreBank has a bottom line mission to invest in socially and environmentally forward projects and businesses.

    @Julie That sounds like a great savings account. I’ll look into it for some of my readers.
