Rachel Cruz makes the case for switching banks with a concrete numbers illustration: the average savings account pays less than 0.5% APY, meaning $20,000 earns roughly $70 a year. Fairwinds Credit Union's High Yield Savings Account at 3%+ APY turns that into over $600 on the same balance. Rachel promotes the Smart Bundle — a High Yield Savings Account, a no-fee checking account, and the Ramsey Be Weird debit card — as a frictionless switch for listeners currently leaving money on the table.
Once a year, Rachel and her husband Winston put money off the table and just dream together — projecting 10 years forward to see where their kids will be, where they want to live, and what bucket list items they want to check off. Getting out of the day-to-day grind and into a future vision is what recharges financial motivation.
Rachel Cruz described her annual 'dream date' with her husband Winston where they project their lives 10 years forward, discussing goals for kids, home, travel, and finances to stay motivated.
