Which bank pays the highest interest rate on savings?

I am a totally against keeping any money in the bank to save, unless I own part of it. From investing my shares in the bank atleast all the fees and little time for my money to grow, in the money market, it's GROWING WAY PAST THE BANK INTEREST! so fee me all you want for everything they got to make money on your money and give you back little, just invest it all back!

Why well, you work hard for you money I'm sure, and so do I. So who cares most about your money doubling and working for you. I really don't think the bank does. So you must learn and find out more about money market, where actually they like to make most of their returns from your money as well, and learn more about dividend reinvestments. Where your money can grow faster because your dividends off of your money reinvest automatically and boy does it grow! Like weeds keep mulitplying well so can your money. Hope you consider. Because you deserve what your worth and I am sure the little effort of educating yourself and knowing. Is the best investment of any rate on return for your dollar you can make.

So go ahead and do your deligent homework, check out the banks interest rate, but also see if they are a company that goes publicly open for you to buy shares and make sound rate of return. If they are in the dividend reinvestment plans, I feel that shows great credibility to their standings. Some sites you can check it out is moneypaper.com and computershare/inventing.com it should be direct companies that work directly to drip plans.

Those websites can help you search and start your real return on the banks that apply to it. There are a few banks that I work with and one of them, I know the rate isn't so great and man does the fees suck! But guess what like I said earlier the bank provides dividend reinvestment plans so I jumped into it. And I feel better knowing that a certain percent of my money being in that bank is still mostly mine. You gotta love it, it's legal, it's no brainer and it's what we deserve. Our money, that we work hard for there for us. Not for more chains of banks and more fees and more employees to take our money and stash it for .05% if your lucky to even get that. I don't honestly feel banks manage my money, they manage my debt and eliminate my income. So I found that stragedy and way of my financial lifestyle. So it's your choice to take matters in your own hand and mangae your income and yes, I agree eliminate your debts in anyway possible. Even if it means chop up those credit cards! Find a financial agent that DON'T ask for upfront fees just to tell you your broke, when you know your broke. Otherwise, consumer life is all about the interest but really what is it about? which bank does better or who manages with knowlegde of the money world.

Best wishes and good luck, these are just my own experiences, knowlegde and thoughts of how money works! and especially how it can work for me, and not the bank. Right? why not get full return on your money. like I said you work hard for it. I give credit to the bank tellers that are in beautiful secured a/c banks with marbled floors and great benefits and looking good in their nice clothes, but guess what I don't think they know about the real deal either, they work just as hard for their money as we do. But does the bank owners know?
