Saving for a First Home! How to make the most of my principal
Would appreciate any advice or personal experiences from anyone on this topic!
With housing prices ridiculously high and rising interest rates, I have decided to live at home with my mom to save up money for a down payment on my first home. Any advice on high-yield ways of earning interest while still protecting my principal? Thank you in advance for any responses to this post.

You could simply put the funds into a high-yield savings account and/or purchase US treasuries. Your bank might also offer competitively priced CDs.
