A substantial penalty applies for any withdrawal without the required 90-day written notice.

Minimum balance to open is $1,000. No penalty for withdrawals from your Golden Rate Fund (minimum withdrawal amount: $250).

GOLDEN RATE FUND PLUS (money market account):

Minimum balance to open is $5,000. The Golden Rate Fund Plus account offers the benefits of the Golden Rate Fund, PLUS the convenience of checks. Write up to three checks per month with a minimum check withdrawal of $500. Penalties apply for writing checks under the minimum withdrawal amount and for exceeding three checks per month. No penalty is assessed if the balance falls below $5,000, however the account will not earn dividends if the balance falls below $5,000 during the month.
