It seems simple enough- "money markets" and other instruments are "paying 5% right now". Who doesn't want to make 5% on their money doing nothing? So should you shift your entire portfolio to something with purported reliable returns and alleged "lack of risk"? Wait...WHY are savings accounts paying 5%? It's All Money Host and Sonoma Wealth Marketing Director Dano Weir sits down with Sonoma Wealth Co-Founder Chris Sipes CFP®, AIF® to discuss the circumstances which have led to savings rates "partying like it's 2009" and potential upsides and downsides to making a move there.
