Here in MoCo, our state/local taxes are over 8%, so we only have to get 0.92 x 5% = 4.6% to match the Capital One rate. And one-year T-bills are at like 4.65% now.


So it sounds about equal unless I'm missing something.

I have a Diff bank but it lets you edit the maturity instructions online to have it deposited into a new CD, deposited into another account, etc. this can all be done online or with the app

But - does it make sense not to put the money in the 5% 11 month CD only to find that rates have gone down when the term ends and have to settle for a lower term CD or savings account, but put the money in a 4.3% 24 month CD instead?


Just to be clear, 4.3% for two years is equal to 5% the first year, then reinvested at 3.7% for the second year. 1.043^2 = 1.05*1.037. So, the real question is whether or not you can get 3.7% for one year, one year from now.

Np, and I just opened one too. Interesting-- I already have three accounts with Cap 1, and they are still requiring me to bring ID into the branch to complete the CD account because the pic I took with my phone was unclear. I love this measure of security!

I broke a low-interest CD for this one. Should make up the penalty within a few months.

That's a good deal to put your money temporarily somewhere.
