As an aside, I feel like Claire's outfits have been steadily showing more body-confidence since she and Marten started hanging out (I'm including the run-up to the relationship). I think it's a really nifty detail showing that the relationship is a healthy force in her life.
Or maybe it's coincidental and I'm just reading too much into things. Like I do.

I've had a savings account since I was like, 10. My primary savings - and my credit card - are still with the federal credit union I signed up for as a middle school student.

I suspect this is far more common than you might think.

Especially those who are on the lower end economically. For many people it is a literal impossibility to save money in any way. They are not only living paycheck to paycheck, but more like the paycheck runs out part way through. The idea of savings is a luxury that some people simply and literally cannot afford.

What's the AYR APY on your account? Google sez best current rate for a standard savings account is 1.85% - with inflation in the U.S at 2.9%

I really like Ally's interface and service, which gives 1.85%. I realize you can get 2% at some, but the difference is too small to bother switching for me.

I have Bank of America (yeah, I know...), and their interest rate is "LOL no."
