So I looked at the 1099 for our savings account at Chase. "Damn," I thought, "this must be only for the part of the year after the WaMu account officially became a Chase account, I'm going to have to wait until I get the 1099 for the WaMu part of the year."
Then I pulled up the account online to check the statements and do the math myself.
Turns out that the 1099 WAS for the full year, the interest rate has just dropped to absolutely nothing. Time to move that money into something that will actually earn something.
