savings bonds
PITT_STL asked:


Although they are safe, the rate of return *****. I was considering bonds. I know the Treasure has a feature that allows you to covert your EE Series Bonds into Treasure bills or notes. Is this a wise choice or should I be looking into Municipal Bonds.

I am aware of checking a bonds ratings before purchase. I just want on opinions on the following Options: Treasury Bills, Treasury Notes, and Municipal Bonds.

We are looking at investing 2k - 5k

    For taxable accounts if you might want to look into 529 plans they are safe and bonds may be default free but they are safe and treasury bills and target date index funds within those.
