The Itty Bitty Bond Book 2016

Bonds are the world's leading financial instrument, far exceeding the size of stock (equity) markets, and yet few Americans understand them, let alone know how to invest in them, or realize how easy such investments are. With simple, easy to understand examples, The Itty Bitty Bond Book takes the reader through the ins and outs of Savings Bonds, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, Treasuries, and CDs, with emphasis on resources that are accessible to everyone, not just the wealthy. The pros and cons of bond funds and bond ETFs are also covered, as is the new myRA government program as an alternative to traditional Savings Bonds.
