World Savings Bank 6% CD Deal Confirmed
I just opened a 6% 9-month CD at my local World Savings Bank in Arcadia, CA (Southern California). This is a REALLY HOT interest rate considering the Fed interest rate hikes stopped today. I also got a free safe deposit box from them for opening the account! I’ve never had one before.
The World Savings bank was at one time under the control of the former Golden West Financial Corporation. As of October 2006, The World Savings Bank is now a subsidiary of the Wachovia Corporation, a financial service company that acquired the subsidiaries of Golden West. Wachovia offers a wide range of services in more than 20 states: services that include wealth management, asset management, banking, brokerage services, corporate banking services, personal banking services and investment options.

It would be pretty cool to have a safe deposit box. I don’t know what I would put in it, but still feels pretty rich to have one. I’m planning on getting a CD account at World Savings just so I can get a free safe deposit box. Check it out!
