If you’re living paycheck to paycheck and need to move money around to make small purchases, then it’s not for you, yeah. Money market funds are for savings, not money that will be imminently spent. But then so are savings accounts at banks (vs Checking accounts)
- thewataccount 4y ago> But then so are savings accounts at banks (vs Checking accounts) Yeah this is the part that I'm confused about because I think that savings accounts are federally restricted to 6 withdrawls a month? I could be completely wrong on that. But yeah the target audience for this IMO - people who have maybe a few thousand saved up that they keep for emergency funds or semi-hot money for larger purchases. which matches the target iphone audience I think pretty well. I bet they restricted accounts to less then 250k because they don't want to bother splitting it across banks when the target audience would be expected to only have several thousand.
