ING Direct has increased the interest paid to its savings account customers to 2.35%. If you’re not keeping your emergency fund, or any money you’re not investing/gambling with here, you should think about opening an account. If you do want to open an account, I can offer you $25 for doing so through a referral program. You get $25 and I get $10 for each referral. Email me through the link on my sidebar (under Who is Flexo?) and let me know you’d like a referral email to get your $25.
