    About this ebook

    I love my Investing for Interest Series. I have spanned the globe with topics concerning building wealth via fixed income and interest.

     

    However, I haven't talked about Series "EE" bonds much. That stops today as I dive deeper into use cases for these savings bonds.

     

    Is there a scenario where Series "EE" bonds best my favorite Series "I" Bonds? I believe "EE" bonds are better long-term if you commit to the 20-year holding period.

     

    Unfortunately, whether you commit or not, life ends up happening. You are the loser if you must withdraw your "EE" bonds before the 20-year period.

     

    The government is betting against you and assuming you will withdraw the cash. Only financially sound individuals should leverage these assets. I will discuss more inside. Good Luck!

      The Investing for Interest Series (101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111) is one of my favorite series.

      I love this series because there is always something new to review or compare in the world of fixed income.

      Bonds don’t receive as much love as stocks, but our fondness for bonds grows as we pivot to capital preservation.

      Retirement Plus: Use Dividends to Supplement Your Retirement

      Today, I want to compare two of the most accessible methods for savings, Series I and Series EE bonds. Hopefully, you can better allocate your cash after this article.

      A quick comparison. Let’s get down and dirty with the facts: Series I Bonds help protect your cash from inflation. On the other hand, Series EE bonds guarantee your money will double in 20 years.

      A deeper look at Series EE bonds. I talk about Series I bonds all the time, at the expense of EE bonds. However, let’s dive deeper today to lay out the facts.

      The US government promises to double the face value of your EE bonds in 20 years. While you wait, you will earn a small interest rate on your cash. Currently, the interest is 2.1% compared to Series I Bonds’ rate of 6.89%.

      For reference, the interest on my favorite high-yield savings account is 3.6%, and I didn’t have to lock up my money for 20 years.

      Let’s be honest; Series EE bonds are a bet against yourself. The government is
