Why would anyone buy US savings bonds at face value?
July 26th, 2009
I just found out today that people can buy savings bonds from the US Treasury at face value. My question is: WHY would anyone want to do that when they can reap interest off from other types of treasury securities?
I have a BBA in finance. I literally had someone just tell me they were given a bond as a gift when they were younger that was bought at face value.
