If you're trying to decide where to keep your emergency fund, I'd choose a high-yield savings account. 👏🏻 You still have easy access to your money when you need it, but it's not quite as easy to spend as the money sitting in your checking account. Plus, you'll usually earn a little more interest while it sits there. #hysa #investing #savings
