    About this ebook

    Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) are a complex instrument to understand; that's why it took me so long to write this article.

     

    However, their premise is simple—allow the average investor to beat inflation slightly and with little risk.

     

    If you buy and hold your TIPS, you should beat inflation over the defined period of the bond. 

     

    If you decide to sell early, you may be in a world of hurt. TIPS are not the only way to beat inflation.

     

    However, TIPS can play an essential part in achieving your investment goals, along with other types of securities. Good Luck!

      Writing this article on Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) took me over a year because they are incredibly complex and tough to understand.

      Over the last year, I have come to understand them more; however, I have yet to become an expert. I will direct you to others who have even more guidance about TIPS.

      I want to give you a basic rundown of the advantages and disadvantages of TIPS so I can set the stage to compare them to other savings bonds, Treasury Bonds, and dividend stocks.

      What are Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities? TIPS are US Treasury Bonds that adjust their principal amount along with inflation.

      The interest rate on the bond remains the same, and the principal will compound along with inflation.

      Interestingly, you will not see the principal amount increase (or decrease) as it
