Those bonds were a mighty good investment when our courntry was in trouble. Since the war the Treasury has continued to selling E Bonds. A lot of us has continued buying them. Their price for anyone who wants to save can afford to. That's why we call them 'Savings Bonds'. Save and earn money too. Besides being a kind of insurance for the nations welfare. US Savings Bonds give back $4 for every $3. I invest in them I hope you do too. Lets all buy even more Savings Bonds this year, their 15th annversary. | |
