10x Your I-Bond Returns (Or More) Using This Little Understood Strategy

Here with a short – and I think pretty interesting – follow up to the explainer video I released back in July on Series I Savings Bonds, otherwise known as I-bonds.

If you haven’t watched that video, I’ll put up the link to it here & again at the end of this video. It explains what I-bonds are and how they work.

But I’m releasing this new video because I-bonds continue to be one of the best deals out there right now.

They come with all of the security and return-of-principal guarantees of a standard Treasury bill, except they currently yield nearly 3x the income. Right now I-bonds are paying interest at a phenomenal rate of 9.62%.

A risk-free return of 9.62% – who wouldn’t want that? Especially in today’s uncertain markets with reported inflation stubbornly persisting above 8%?

I think just about all of us would. And in most cases, we should take advantage of this. I certainly have been this year.

Though I should specify here up front that only those with a US Social Security number can buy I-bonds. Sorry international folks – if you don’t have one, you can’t take advantage of what I’m about to share here.

Of course, the rub with I-bonds is that the government limits us to buying only $10,000 worth of them, per person, in any given year.

So, if you have a lot of cash to protect from inflation, I-bonds are generally dismissed – they’re viewed as a nice but too small & insufficient shield because folks fixate on the $10,000 limit.

I think thinking this way is a mistake here in September of 2022, because there’s a strategy that today – right now – will allow you to invest more than 10x that.

At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money. Each week we add new videos that provide you with access to the foremost specialists in investing, economics, the stock market, real estate and personal finance.

We offer exceptional interviews and explainer videos that dive deep into the trends driving today's markets, the economy, and your own net worth. We give you strategies for financial security, practical answers to questions like “how to grow my investments?”, and effective solutions for wealth building tailored to 'regular' investors just like you.

There’s no doubt that it's a very challenging time right now for the average investor. Above and beyond the recent economic impacts of COVID, the new era of record low interest rates, runaway US debt and US deficits, and trillions of dollars in monetary and fiscal stimulus stimulus has changed the rules of investing by dangerously distorting the Dow index, the S&P 500, and nearly all other asset prices. Can prices keep rising, or is there a painful reckoning ahead?

Let us help you prepare your portfolio just in case the future brings one or more of the following: inflation, deflation, a bull market, a bear market, a market correction, a stock market crash, a real estate bubble, a real estate crash, an economic boom, a recession, a depression, or another global financial crisis.

Put the wisdom from the money & markets experts we feature on Wealthion into action by scheduling a free consultation with Wealthion’s endorsed financial advisors, who will work with you to determine the right next steps for you to take in building your wealth.
