The rate on my ingdirect.com account went up to three percent yesterday. Go, interest rates, go! (Some days I feel like the only person in the world cheering for higher interest rates.)
No, I view this as a good thing as well. I have seen it rise several times over the past few months, from 2.2 to 2.5 to 2.8 and now 3. I am cheering like crazy on the personal side b/c I have an account with them. Of course, on the professional side I am a little sick as the bank I work for is not budging off of .25 for the basic savings and .5 for the $2500-10K range and we are losing customers right and left.
