I’m thinking of opening a long-term savings account, I want to make sure I can have the best interest possible, what do you suggest?

The best way is to start exploring is through “America’s Best Rates” on Moneyrate.com. This website will give you a list of banks that offer consistent high yields. Then go to Bankrate.com to see if any of those banks are around your area. This website also allow you to compare all the banks within your city limits along with the interest rate they offer.
