Get 6 Percent Interest from FNBO Direct!!!

From Clark Howard.com/shownotes/2007/05/09

"Over the past two years, online bank accounts have become the new phenomenon in the banking world. It’s the modern banking equivalent of the credit union advantages Clark often mentions. And the latest deal is unbelievable! FNBO Direct is now offering 6 percent on FDIC-insured savings accounts. It stands for the First National Bank of Omaha and it’s available through September. That is the highest interest rate on a savings account Clark knows of at the moment. FNBO is an existing bricks and mortar bank, and the “direct” entity is an offshoot. But the deals offered at the “direct” versions of the banks are not offered at the traditional banks. That’s because the company doesn’t have to pay for the branches. Don’t miss out!"

The rate is valid until 9/08/2007. Before the 6 percent offering, their rate was 5.25 APY. This is better than my 4.5% APY money market account at a credit union.

It only takes $1 to open an account.

You don't need to change banks and "may keep your existing accounts at other financial institutions. You can link up to three external accounts to your FNBO Direct Online Savings Account. You may transfer money between those external "linked accounts" and your FNBO Direct Online Savings Account. The FNBO Direct Online Savings Account is a supplementary account that enables you to receive the benefit of a high yield."

Your money is insured and you have 24/7 access to it.

This is easy to do and you can enjoy 6% interest until 9/07. Take advanatage of it!
