The credit union has a 1 year CD at 2.5% but given the volatility of the 
economy the extra 0.25% isn't worth locking in for a year. I doubt that 
the rate will be lower than 2.25 in six months, possibly higher.

I used to go over to the bank every year to make an IRA contribution. We'd 
joke about moving money from one interest free account to another. 

Oh for those simple times when a passbook savings account paid 3.5%, you 
got an electric carving knife for opening it, and the entire damn economy 
wasn't based on the Wall Street casino.
