  1. Minimum Wage says:

    There’s a credit union where I live advertising 6.25% APY/

    There’s a bit of a catch – while there is no minimum, there is a maximum of $30,000. Any balances above $30,000 get 1.01% APYU.

  2. Minimum Wage says:

    That is, you get 6.25% on the first $30,000 and then 1.01% on the rest.
