I'm getting conflicting, and confusing answers from both that which I google, and a few financial/banking type people I associate, and have invested, with.
Mahalo in advance, I'm sure some of you whiz kids can clear this right up. Here goes:
How much can one American, hypothetically a Polynesian, buy in US Savings Bonds per year?
Is it 10k to themselves?
Is the limit only 10k if bought from treasurtydirect.com? Can I still buy more for myself from the bank?
What about those that I gift to various nieces and nephews? That can only be from treasurydirect.com. But does that count to my limit?
If I buy the EE vs. the I does the limit change?
I want to make some long-term investments that are "cash in hand style" as opposed to the other stuff I do. I have paper ones I cashed at the bank that was fully mature. Since its all this digital shit now I'm skeptical.
But I still love America. In fact, I swore to the bank people, I got a bit of a discount when I bought the paper ones because I was active duty. Does anyone know if theres a discount on them for veterans?
Was that just a little bonus from Uncle Sam for all the terrorists I killed?
Please give me some advice, my wise brothers.
Aloha!
