As far as your annuities bonus. Read the fine print. That 6% bonus isnt really free. The insurance company just charges a higher expense for a certain number of years to recoup that "bonus" money. In some cases it makes sense but is usually just something extra to get you interested. Nothing is ever free.

Sure, there a number of ways.  If you're 18 or over, you can start up a brokerage account pretty easily and invest that way.  If you're under 18, you could still do it using a custodial account.  Those are probably the easiest.\n\nOptionally, you could start putting money into retirement accounts, such as Roth IRAs, which have tax benefits.

Look up any bank's website.  Do they have banks in your country?

In the states, you will not easily beat ING http://www.ingdirect.com with 4.00% interest. It is easy to set up. All you need is a checking account somewhere.

Banrate.com is a good source for info. I also use ING Direct, the Orange Account is currently paying 3.8% (4.25%) on new deposits through May, I belive). I also hear good things about HSBC Direct.

You can open a basic savings account to accummulate the money at the beginning. Any major bank would support an online account.

The best savings accounts in UK are definitely from Halifax Banks.\n\nHalifax Banks have alot of services that they can give you for example: \n1. Bank Accounts\n2. Credit Cards\n3. Estate Agency\n4. Holidays \n5. Insurance\n6. Investments\n7. Loans\n8. Mortgages\n9. Savings\n10. Share Dealing\n\nAll these services that the Halifax banks offer are great, besides they help you in your life they can give you alot of money and alot of interest in your savings account.\n\nNumber 9 called Savings: Is an excellent account in which you can open a savings account and if you keep your money in that account for a long time, automatically it will increase your interest rate, for example: If you have  £6,500 in your savings account and if you keep your money there for 6 months your interest rate will increase from 3.5% to 6% and it will be a little bit more of money; But you cannot take out money from your account once you've already made this deal, if you take money out you'll lose your interest. (And you can hardly be able to apply once again.)\n\nI think this one is good because they give you alot of interest, it's secure, it has alot of popularity, all the people have their account in it, and it's a bank in which you can trust 100%.\n\nSo try it! It's an excellent bank that in my opinion, I recommend it for everyone that lives in UK.\n\nI hoped that this answer has helped you in everything. \n\nRegards

Go with the following combination:\n   Online Bank Acct:  hsbcdirect.com   - offers 4.25%\n   brick & mortar bacnk:  bankofamerica - free bill pay, lots of atms.\n\nThis has worked out great for me.  I transfer money over to the Bank of America acct from my HSBC account whenever i need money in there for ATM access.  Works great and I get 4.25%!

Any bank should offer very low rates and fees.  Just make sure you're working with a reputable company and you'll be fine.  There's probably hundreds of companies out there that can give you the lowest rate.

There are a couple really nice deals with some of the online banks:\n\nING Direct\nCitibank\nImmigrant Bank\nNetbank\n\nI'd say there are all just about the same, so I'd go with the one with the highest %rate for deposits.
