your first plan of action with any graduation money you get this summer? open a high-yield savings account (HYSA) ASAP if you haven’t already!!!

welcome to #DialedIn, a limited series and part of our #GraduationGuide, where we’re breaking down common questions from current and recent grads who are trying to figure out post-grad life just like you are. our first question comes from Her Campus reader Rebecca: “I keep hearing all my friends talk about high-yield savings accounts. WTF is that, and why do I need one?”

for this episode, we tapped creator and former Her Campus writer katelynharuko to break down why a HYSA is an easy, risk-free way for your money to make you more money while it sits in your account — with a higher interest rate on your funds than a regular savings account. tl;dr: the more you save, the more free money you get!

keep watching for katelynharuko's helpful tips, and head to the link in bio for more of #TheGraduationGuide
