Not very long ago, I felt a little intimidated by the idea of opening a higher yield account. First Californian helped me understand my options and the money market account works great for me. I like the higher dividend rates without a fixed term. It's basically a higher rate primary savings account that I'd recommend if you have $1,000 or more in savings.
