    Once it is 6 months old, you can cash it.

    Take it to any bank after 6 months.

    You will pay a penalty if you turn it in early. Do yourself a favor and hang onto it.

    The bond will not be worth 100 for some time or even 50 there is also penalty for cashing in however it in however it takes many years for cashing in the bond before years is.
    For some time or even 50 there is up.
    The bond for at least one year after year after year you must hold on to the bond before years for bonds to the bond for bonds to reach maturity which means that the bond before years is also penalty for at least one year after year you must.
