And both could be viable for $50,000, since savers will be able to pivot with ease should they want to adjust their savings strategy in the future. Before getting started, however, it&#8217;s important to calculate the interest-earning possibilities each account type offers right now.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Between a $50,000 high-yield savings account and a $50,000 money market account, then, which can earn more right now?

That can be problematic if interest rate cuts are issued later this year, as many anticipate. Still, a Fed rate cut is unlikely to be major to start and rates on both of these accounts won&#8217;t fall in an identical fashion. Still, some speculation will need to take place to determine the interest earnings possible with a $50,000 deposit.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what each can earn now, calculated using <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/what-are-todays-savings-interest-rates\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">today&#8217;s top rates<\/a><\/span>, on the assumption that they&#8217;ll remain the same over the next year:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$50,000 high-yield savings account at 4.35% after six months:<\/strong> $1,075.92<\/li>\n<li><strong>$50,000 money market account at 4.40% after six months:<\/strong> $1,088.16<\/li>\n<li><strong>Difference between accounts:<\/strong> The money market account makes $12.24 more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$50,000 high-yield savings account at 4.35% after nine months:<\/strong> $1,622.54<\/li>\n<li><strong>$50,000 money market account at 4.40% after nine months: <\/strong>$1,641.09<\/li>\n<li><strong>Difference between accounts:<\/strong> The money market account makes $18.55 more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$50,000 high-yield savings account at 4.35% after one year:<\/strong> $2,175.00<\/li>\n<li><strong>$50,000 money market account at 4.40% after one year:<\/strong> $2,200.00<\/li>\n<li><strong>Difference between accounts:<\/strong> The money market account makes $25.00 more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In each of the above instances, the money market account earns more.

Returns here are substantial and flexibility can be maintained. Wherever you ultimately decide to deposit your money, just be sure to avoid keeping it in a traditional savings account since average rates there are under 0.40%, essentially meaning you&#8217;re losing money by not making a switch.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/matt-richardson\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Matt  Richardson<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Matt Richardson is the senior managing editor for the Managing Your Money section for CBSNews.com.
