Very little $$$ should be sitting in a savings account.

If "you" require Insured dollars in your portfolio, "you" should be laddering CD's....not parking money in a savings account.
If 1-2% are insignificant then why would you bother with a CD unless it had a yield above 6%? Where do you find CD's that are more than 2% above what high yield savings are offering?
