Seriously Not sure why anyone would have money in a bank right now when the T NOTES are paying such a huge amount in interest ,,,,,also remember if you open a lets say a CD 10,000 then you must put in $10,000 ..when you buy a 10,000 T Note you put in less then $10,000 to open it .......and their are small tax advantages for some...

As a retired banker with one of the BIG BANKS
a neighbor in the Villages asked me what to do with 2 year CD paying less then .70 % and has 12 months to go,,,,,my advise dump the CD pay the little penalty and start earning almost 5 % with a 1 year T note ,,
Since the issues at SVB, CD's are now yielding higher rates than Treasurys.
