how was schwab better than simple? simple offers better checking interest by a lot, as far as i can tell; i'm tempted to switch because of that, keeping schwab for foreign ATM usage

I don’t use my checking account as an investment account. Yes Simple has a higher interest rate but my checking account only ever has whatever it needs to fulfill rent and bills. Everything else gets allocated elsewhere.

I’m also married so this is a joint account. Last time I checked Simple doesn’t provide joint accounts. That might have changed.
