    Good for you.
    If you are under age 18, a parent can help you open a young savers account at most banks and credit unions. Usually, credit unions offer slightly better interest rates than regular banks, so if you have one in your neighborhood, check them out.
    If you plan to use a debit or ATM card, make sure you pick a bank with ATMs near your home, work or school, if not the fees at other banks ATMs will eat up any interest you might earn.
