- UncleOxidant 7y agoGood point. I do have some in US iBonds. Some of those are yielding in the 4% range but those were bought quite a while back now.
- JohnFen 7y ago> Unless your country's government crashes To be perfectly honest, I think there's a high enough chance that this will happen (although still a low chance) that I have to take it into account in my emergency plans.
- Kaze404 7y agoIf your country collapses to the point where it can't return your bonds, your money won't be worth anything anyway :p
- richard78459 7y agoExactly. That's the problem BitCoin solves.
- Kaze404 7y agoExcept bitcoin is speculation, not investing.
