Chiefette Posted at 11:31 am on Jan. 6, 2009 Savings bonds, and CDs.  They both have good interest rates, and are easy to use.  I do suggest savings bonds though.  They aren't in an account, you put them away and forget about them.  They double their value in 7 years, and they continue to be worth more over time. dunebug Posted at 9:22 am on Jan. 6, 2009 Quote: from ChemicEmotions at 10:06 pm on Jan. 5, 2009   It depends if the parents are even still supporting her, which I doubt (and so they rightfully shouldn't).   I couldn't open an account under my parent's name because their credit was so bad lawl so that's also a possibility (and by credit, I mean they would take my money if they didn't pay any of their bills).

There's youth accounts where there's no minimum amount, low ATM fees, etc. If you're not 18 yet, why can't you simply ask your parents to set one up? I can hardly see them saying "No" to you setting up a savings account for your child/their grandchild.   IMV, your money is safer in a local bank where you can access it, than in the account of some random company. In most cases, if that company goes under, they're not bound to return your money. It depends if the parents are even still supporting her, which I doubt (and so they rightfully shouldn't).

Eidolon Posted at 9:11 am on Jan. 5, 2009 I would just make an account and have money deposited in it from a my monthly earnings yguinor Posted at 9:07 am on Jan. 5, 2009 Quote: from ChemicEmotions at 8:57 am on Jan. 5, 2009 Quote: from daisydee23 at 10:51 am on Jan. 5, 2009 A bank account would be great but I can't open one. I wanted to just find a company i could send my money to and it will accumalate over time How long before you're 18? You can start saving it now and when you turn 18 you can put it in the bank, that way you will have a good starting point. I'm assuming you want to make this a long term thing, maybe for the kids' college or car or something right? So you might as well wait until you're 18. That's what I did anyway. I started to save up when I got a job, then I turned 18 and put all my savings into an account. this.
