Hi Laura my name is

my name is Hannah and I'm from the great state of Maine and I was wondering if you could

talk more about high-y accounts, what you should use them for,

and if you have any personal recommendations.

I also, as a side note, I love how you say finance instead of finance. I don't know why I'm just so

tickled about that. Thanks so much for us. Bye-bye.

Thanks Hannah for, Laura. Bye-bye.

Thanks, Hannah, for your question and funny comment.

Yes, I love podcasting about finance.

And Maine is a great state.

My husband and I spent a little time there a few years ago in

Portland and drove up the coast for several days in Bar Harbor. It was so much fun.

Yeah, you live in a beautiful place. We have another question from Jane F who says hello

Laura I'm a new listener to your podcast and truly enjoy your shows. I have

$5,000 to invest for short-term gains, like five years.

And CDs are the only investments I know of.

Can you advise on other investment options I should explore?

Jane, thanks so much for being a new listener and I really appreciate the question.

This podcast will answer Hannah and Jane's questions by exploring how to make the most of your savings.

I'm going to review four strategies

to earn more interest with options that go beyond a basic bank savings account,

while also keeping your money safe.
