    About this ebook

    Understanding and purchasing US treasuries can be challenging. There is lots of information on what they are, but not why you should buy them.

     

    There are many types of Treasuries, but I want to focus on the three that resemble traditional bonds.

     

    Treasury Bills have short durations of less than one year.

    Treasury Notes have durations between 2 and 10 years.

    Treasury Bonds have durations between 20 and 30 years.

     

    Each type has a unique reason why you should invest your hard-earned dollar. Ultimately, it comes down to your goals and how you manage your money.

     

    Every household needs an emergency fund, a savings plan, and an investment portfolio; you can use different treasuries to reach your goals. Good Luck!

      What are US Treasuries? The US government runs on taxes and debt. Americans can participate in funding the government by purchasing US Treasuries directly from the government.

      US Treasuries are the most traded and liquid securities on the bond market. Understanding how US Treasuries work is vital to building a knowledge base of the various other markets (stocks, real estate, cryptocurrencies, commodities).

      The US offers a few types of Treasuries, but today, I want to focus on the three classes of standard bonds:

      Treasury Bills have short durations of less than one year.

      Treasury Notes have durations between 2 and 10 years.

      Treasury Bonds have durations between 20 and 30 years.

      How do you decide which Treasury product suits your unique household needs? Let’s start by looking at every household's three needs: an emergency fund, savings plan, and investment
