One of the Eight Pillars of Wealth is banking. Where you bank and how much of a return you get on your savings has a significant long-term impact on your wealth. That's why I'm compiling a list of the best places to keep your money - that is, banks with the highest interest rates. For a review of each bank listed below, click on its link.

I've assigned each bank a rating, from "$" to "$$$$$", with one dollar sign being the worst (don't even think of banking here!) and five dollar signs being the best (this bank is the cream of the crop).
