			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ronald E B answered most of the question, but I will supplement:<br />
Savings accounts are insured by the government, in the event that the financial institution in which they&#8217;re held becomes insolvent. So that&#8217;s really solid.<br />
Money market investments do not have that kind of insurance in Canada (not sure where you are).<br />
Insured or not, they are low risk investments, but NOT no-risk. Because they hold investments (low-risk ones), there is a risk that they can become worth less than their &#8220;book&#8221; value (what you purchased them at, or deposited into them), in addition to the risk of insolvency, of whatever institution holds that investment for you.<br />
The benefit to a money market investment (it needs a benefit to offset the down-side), is that it CAN pay higher interest than a savings account. You&#8217;ll need to check on its track record over different periods of time though to see if that&#8217;s true now.<br />
I used to have a money market account, but interest rates became so low in general, that the fact that there were even tiny fees being deducted from the money market investment meant I was earning next to nothing. So I switched to a high-interest, insured savings account at a bank that will remain nameless, but uses a lot of orange! No fees, no minimums and high interest plus insurance, so no downside. There are now other banks offering this kind of account, so take a look around.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Money Market accounts typically offer a much higher rate of return than savings accounts. They invest in super safe securities such as short term bonds and t-bills. They are completely liquid (you can make withdraws whenever). I highly recommend opening a money market account simply because you earn 2% or 3% more than a savings account. They also adjust to the current interest rate much faster than savings accounts which typically move like molasses on a winter day.</p>
