Hunting another place to stash some cash in - we've CDs in Penfed at a pretty happy rate but need a spot for some of the cash we loan out and their savings rate is modest. Currently have ready cash piling up in a couple Costco CapOne accounts but the 1.29% rate, while appreciated, is not inspiring. Also getting to the point that we could lose if CapOne went under.
Know myself too well to think I would do 12 debit card transactions, three auto deposits, send in a Kix cereal boxtop, and wear plaid on Fridays to get 4% on up to $25k. Too lazy and failing to meet the requirements would just piss me off.
Guess I'm looking for that happy spot where security and return meet. Anyone have anecdotal recommendations? Any stock market type instruments that offer decent return for low risk? Corporate bonds? Length of time they must be held to realize dividends?
