My precious grandma was a "diversify kind of gal" when it came to finances. We were often gifted gold, precious gemstones and EE savings bonds.

Bonds that have reached their max 20 maturity and have been reinvested elsewhere, EE bonds are gauranteed to double in value at 20 years.

Would you let ALL bonds reach maturity or place in another investment PRE maturity?

My newest bond will not mature for another 19 years.

WWVB do?

As long as the money is not needed, why not let them mature? After all that's why your GM purchased them in the first place, right?

I find this ironic coming from your old azz.

Hell, you can't even type a numerical value in correctly on a work order. Dementia much?

That's not a bad return. I'd sit on it for the time being

WWVBD? In my limited experience here, it looks like this:

1. Smoke a lot of stuff.
2. Drink a lot of alcohol.
3. Post a lot of dumb shit on the board.
4. Pass out around midnight.
5. Get up about noon and do it all over again.

You're welcome.
