Share your experience with Treasury security
Anyone want to share their experience with Treasury security? By stating Treasury security, i mean any of the four things that are typically offered by the treasury of any conutry, namely:
1. Treasury bill
2. Treasury note
3. Treasury bond
4. TIPS
In my case, I am a student who does not have much income and do not have much captial to invest in more profitable venture as most of my saving goes to pay for my college fees
So for my case, i went for treasury bill as they mature in one year or less. It means that I could put in part of my saving into it and get my divdend quickly. I have to pay for college fees with my saving, so I do to keep my saving as acessible as possible.
Also, my government allows me to put in as little as sgd $1000, so it is great for people like me who could not afford to put much funds for investement purpose. And the interest rate is often much better than fixed deposits, .
And of course, the interest is granted regardless of what happend. (unless the government collasped)
