Who puts money in a savings account that pays 2%?

Everyone who has a bank savings account if their lucky. Most savings accounts pay less than 2 %.

This is the result of the government artificially controlling interest rates. The Feds are riding a tiger with no notion of how to get off without being devoured.

The only reason I have a savings account is I put money it it to pay fees and subscriptions - I calculate the monthly amount I should put in it and pay fees out of that. Keeps things separate. I don’t use it to earn money - I use mutual funds for that.
