This thread is fulfilling my argument needs for the week.

1. No it doesn't.

2. If you've got 2.4% on a checking account with no strings attached, I want to know what bank you are using.

Yes, but not better than 1.5% and 5% on various categories from a credit card. Which is what this thread has been comparing, not the stock market.

And if your bank is giving you 0.2% APR, that's NOT 0.2% per month. Nobody advertises monthly interest rates.

Lots of banks offer great rates on interest bearing checking accounts...keeping in mind that they are usually tiered money market type accounts and rates are based on balances kept...
