What is the interest rate on your bank saving?

I get a measly rate of 4 percent, good for nothing. Also they calculate interest on the minimum amount in your account from 10 of the month to the 31st. We need a better interest rate. Our borrowings have interest rate from 10 percent to 40 percent. Very unfair.

I don't put my savings in the bank. The interest rate from where I come from is even less than your 4%. I invest in forex and every week, based on daily interest collected, I get returns of about 40-120% on an annual basis. I'm not kidding because forex trading has this element of leverage. On a leverage of 1:400, for every $1000 you invest, you control and "own" that 400X more of currency and interest is paid on $400,000! I post my forex progress at www.forex4aliving.blogspot.com. If you are serious about growing your wealth, at least just check out my results here and decide for yourself.

Right now, the good thing about being a forex retail trader is that everything is done via the internet. I trade with US brokers and all done via internet. Just have to make sure you find a good broker and not someone that runs off with your money. :)

My country has 8% of interest rate. But i didn't put my money in bank. Just invest in Forex and have 10% until 20% increase per month. It is good to be one of our online income.

Just put your money in Mutual Funds,UTIF,stocks etc. but not on the bank.Bank only has 3-4 % and you cant consider it as an investment since inflation is more than that.
