<prompt> Human: -EDIT- So basically decided on stashing it through a savings account. Any suggestions on best banks that have the best interest rates?I landed a summer internship and expecting to make around 6-8k of which im hoping to saveinvest between 1-2k but I have no idea where to start.I know its not a lot of money and I still have a couple more years till a consistent monthly income but im 100 content on keeping that 1-2k amount stashed for a long time.Any advice would be helpful because this is the first time in my life ive ever had more than 100 in my bank account, but I want to be smart about it and see it grow.If all else fails im just going to stash it in a savings account  <response>: Put it in a HYSA.
