I’ve been reading a lot about several online banks that offer killer interest rates for your savings account. Not only that, many of them give you money just for signing up with them.

Case in point. ING Direct. You can start an account with them for just $250 at an interest rate of 4.40%! That puts my bank’s puny 1.05% return rate to shame. I decided to take the plunge.
