I'm 19 and teaching myself financial literacy. May I ask what's APY and what's the difference between checking account and bank account?

I'm really confused.

Was hoping to hear about Landmark Credit Unions 7.50 APY premium checking account

There okay, I just don't like that they aren't everywhere, just local 😒

Should discuss deposit requirements - SoFi requires a direct deposit of 5k recurring monthly to qualify for their increased apy...No thanks.

Sorry, you lost me when you mentioned the Amex checking account. It’s probably one of the most barebones account on the market. No ability to deposit cash, no online bill pay, no Zelle and no cashiers checks.

-Amex
-Discover
-Schwab

-Capital One 360

Hello...are you going to do an Updated video on the best Money Market and CD accounts? Your last video and website update was in February. Thank you!

Betterment is one to mention because they may not have the interest on the checking but have a really high interest on savings and allow for cashback on your checking account on different popular brands.
