Most CDs stipulate that if you withdraw/close EARLY you are paid ZERO interest or the penalty for early withdraw is greater than interest paid to date!!! Robert-

According to that chart, that would be close to the rate back in April 2007 for a 6 month CD. Not sure what a 5 year CD was back then, but I'm sure it was much higher. Anyway, if I keep the money in there for two years as hopefully rates tick upward, then I can withdraw the money and even with penalties still have a better return than I'd get on a lot of the savings accounts and CD's that are hovering around 2.0 - 2.7% and rates just seem to keep going lower.
