Although there is plenty of security in an FDIC savings account the prospects of good returns are slim. What I propose is a <i>structured investment</i>. At first glance it looks like any other investment but the fun part of this is that it follows the stock market. The BEST part is that it is insured by the FDIC so you cannot lose your initial investment! See the prospect of great returns with the security of a savings account. Boring!

We do an auto-debit every two weeks and it's helped a lot with our savings / debt-reduction plan.

After you put in your zip code, it will have a whole table of rates. Jules: Dollars Savings Direct seems to be a spun-off of Emigrant Direct and it is currently offering a 16 month CD for 4.00%. It's FDIC insured so the principle should be safe. Chiko: They actually have a neat little utility on their website so go check it out.
