If they make a ton of money but give users an easy 3% account I wont complain. Why is everyone so mad at them for being successful when they are offering cheaper services then the rest of the market!? Do they need to hire a homeless CEO to actually qualify as doing something good for society overall?

They are exposing a vulnerable and naive class of investors to a higher-risk asset class in an arguably deceitful way. If their 3% account was SPIC protected (and therefore low-to-no risk), this would be a totally different conversation.

I have a money market account at Capital One that earns 2% and is FDIC. Staying there.

How dare they give people more options for investment! Despicable.
