We've covered the majority if not all of the APY changes since Apple Card Savings launched. At the very least, I hope you appreciate the shorter format now for such a story. All of our previous articles on this topic had the same 3-5 paragraphs rehashing what Apple Card Savings is. We are experimenting with brief stories for certain topics in order to get to the point and save time for both us and readers.

No matter who you are, you need quick cash on hand. Keep cash, and invest in a smart way.
