Save money?

If you are working toward saving money, one of the savings vehicles you may want to consider is a savings account. Savings accounts usually pay interest (although a relatively small amount) on the account, and your savings is generally protected by FDIC insurance. A savings account is relatively uncomplicated, but there are definitely some things to consider and evaluate before choosing and opening one.
