I know some of you guys are gonna kill me here, but I really feel saving is a little more important than paying off school loans aggressively. Having a nice savings account gives me a sense of security.

Starting to save was one of THE MOST DIFFICULT thing I had to do in my life, now I am very comfortable with it, and can't live w/o saving.

Paying off my school loans and being broke after, IS NOT going to give me a great feeling.

I agree with this totally if it is what makes you comfortable. That's what is important.

I have an HSBC account but I simply prefer ING. I would not move only for a few months
