I pay my taxes with a smile because I’m proud of this country and I receive a LOT back from it. Good schools, affordable colleges, a good road system, available and quality food and water, safe and affordable electricity — Americans complain about a lot of things, but the truth is, we have a great life here in the USA and being asked to support the system that provides this lifestyle doesn’t bother me a bit. I doubt it bothers Buffet or Gates, either. It’s the price of business, which you’d pay in any country you might choose to live in. As the good book says, pay unto Caesar. And yes, I made over 320k last year so the higher taxes will affect me. Being a part of this system is not a punishment. It’s a privilege. And I’m willing to pay for it.

I have seen a few of these popping up. A rate bump would be nice for when things turn around.

Never heard of that – do you have a list of banks that offer them?

Perhaps you don’t intend to take it out but you want to be able to if circumstances change.

sounds like a way for people to take out their money and not save. Just the option of taking and putting up to 50% of the deposit intrigue but then whats the point of a CD if your going to take it out?

Can’t say I’ve ever heard of this but sounds interesting.

Don’t fall for the gimmicks. Just get the highest yield CD possible, regardless of duration for your cash savings portion.
