I'll take a tiny bit less money for better customer support :)<br /><br />Glad to see you're reading Ramit's book too! It's one of my all-time favorites - so fun and easy to read, really glad he came out with it. Yeah, USAA isn't always the *best* rate out there but I still always choose them.

I hope they implement sub-accounts or something similar. They're pretty good about being on top of website technologies. I was checking out ING after reading a few chapters of Ramit's book but the only 2 things is has over USAA is a tiny bit higher interest rate and the ability to do sub-accounts. Nice!

I actually emailed my contact over there and said they should copy ING and get us sub-accounts so I could start rockin' them :) <br /><br />I still have money over at ING but it's basically just chillin' until I figure out what to do w/ it. I might xfer more over and start breaking them down by fun fund, car, etc etc but for now I don't do that.<br /><br />There are other great online banks out there too, ING just happens to be one of the more popular ones - and for good measure.

There are other great online banks out there too, ING just happens to be one of the more popular ones – and for good measure.

I've been doing research today looking at other options for getting a little more return out of my saved money (currently with USAA). ING Direct seems to beat USAA Performances Savings as well as their Money Market fund. I'm a little wary that ING received a bailout and I've heard they built their business on mortages. Of course there are a ton of other online banks out there that offer interest rates far above both ING Direct and USAA, but ING Direct is pretty established and has good website features.<br /><br />For people that are with both banks - Which bank do you use for what? Everything with USAA and ING Direct for emergency fund? I'd love to hear some thoughts! Great Post!
