Maximize Your Savings with High-Yield CDs in 2024

TL;DR Summary
Opening a long-term certificate of deposit (CD) in 2024 could be a smart financial move as interest rates are currently high, but expected to decrease in the future. By locking in a fixed rate, your money can earn significant interest over the CD term, while the principal remains safe and protected by the FDIC. However, keep in mind that early withdrawal penalties may apply, so ensure you're comfortable with the funds being inaccessible for the entire term.
