    I did 100k at 6% for 2 and 3 months. Made a decent amount. In the future I plan on doing 200k. Maybe, I will actually do 1 million. I do have a million just laying around.

    Just put $6000 into a 5 month CD at 4.65%. Cash was just sitting around anyways losing value from inflation. Might as well try to get that value back since I didn't need to touch that money for awhile.

    @X-Factor-by2kz Год назад +7

    Do you earn the APY each month for the term of the CD? How does this work? My CU has a special offer going on now. 4.75% APY for 13 months. I'm considering putting in $500 as its the minimum.

    • @Omni0404
      @Omni0404 Год назад

      How I've always seen it work is that those advertised APY amounts usually require you to keep your interest in the CD until it comes to term. You can choose to have the interest go somewhere else but your interest rate will be lower. Just make sure they don't have it set to auto-renew if you plan to cash it out.

    Can you add to a CD without closing it ?..like deposit a monthly amount??

    • @mclaine33
      @mclaine33 9 месяцев назад

      No the way it works is that you have to have all the money at once and it’s deposit in an account and then you can’t touch it until the maturity date. If you don’t have a bunch of cash, consider a high yield savings account. Usually they are offering around 4-4.5%
