There are currently 7 nationwide high yield checking accounts with 6% APY or higher that anyone can join. Most people stay away from these kind of accounts because of the 10 debit requirements from your checking. With savings account hovering around 3% APY, this might be a great way to make some extra money for doing a little work. Visit their website or call them on how to join.
