Opened a 2.5% Money Market account today...
 

Not to bad in San Diego the money market 2.5%

if the rates feel like it will go down then i might put into a CD for 11 months for 2.8%
but its locked for 11 months which is the prob

not bad for a money market account...

but isn't 2.5% below inflation?

Never lock your money into something like that. The second you do, something usually happens and you NEED it.

Invest in Singapore time deposits 4.8% and higher depending on originator.

after inflation and taxes its really not that much

OUCH 2.5%.. that's gotta hurth :( Regular intrest is around 3,25-3,50% here (and that's LOW)
