Default $25 for free

Hey everyone. I have an account with ING Direct. I am sure may of you have heard of them and some of you have not. Here is one of the many cool things about bieng with them.

On savings accounts they pay approx 4% interest where as other banks pay about .5-1%.

now they have checking available to with interest around 3.5%.

Who cares you say? YOU SHOULD! Let your money work for you. The more you pack away the more interest you earn the more mods you get to buy for your car using "free money"

The best part is this:
Every person you refer that makes a minimum deposit of $250 gets $25 for themselves as a welcome bonus and you get $10.

There are no catches....even check out the website.

If you are interested please email me back so I can send you a referral link. After you establish your account you too can send out referral links and recieve the free money from ING as a thank you as well!


If you have any questions let me know!

Well a better interest rate with no charge is kind of like giving away free money.

i just read in a magazine last month that if you put $100 a month is a roth ira from age 25 to 65, you will have $1,000,000 when you retire. if you wait like 5 or 10 years to start it at that rate, you'll only have like $300,000. think of your future folks. i've decided that i'm going to start one when i graduate college.

Sorry. Neither company charges. They are both free. The company that gives you the better rate is giving you more free money than the other.

Put your money into a company 401k, and enjoy the 5-10% return you will get. Save it for retirement, the interest earned over 6mnths to a year is miniscule. Keep it invested for the long-term.
