Fairwinds Credit Union Sponsor Read

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.
