Why save at the bank?

Best Answer

Because the bank will safeguard your money.

If someone steals your money from your desk drawer or from under you mattress, your money is gone forever. If there is a fire in your apartment, your money is gone forever.

If you choose an FDIC insured bank or an NCUA insured credit union, if your bank ever runs out of money to return to you, the government will return the first $100,000 of your money to you. ($250,000 until 12/31/09)

If you shop wisely for a bank, you can find one who will actually give you back more money than you put in! You open what is called a "savings account" and the bank pays you what is called "interest" for saving there. But be careful, a lot of banks charge fees (especially for small accounts) or pay interest that is so small you won't notice it. If you carefully compare banks, you can find a better deal.
