How often is your investment compounded? On emigrant's site it says 'compounded daily- credited monthly'
Does that mean your investment * (1.4^12 - 1) is what you would make in a year?
[/ QUOTE ]
The numbers quoted are APY's. So don't even worry about this, you are earning 4.0% after compounding is calculated.

Could you give an example? I don't really understand this crap and I want to know if it's even worth the effort (if I even had money [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img])
Is there a formula so I can plug in like $x and see how much I would make in a year off the interest?
[/ QUOTE ]
$x * 1.04 should do the trick for you.
[/ QUOTE ]
So, it's not actually compounded daily?
[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, it is compounded daily such that after one year you'll have earned 4%. APY stands for annual percentage yield.

Thanks. Just ruined my dreams of putting in 100k and living off the interest... [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
4% compounded monthly would be sooooo nice
