Many people with investments are often unaware of the differences in Treasury securities. This is understandable, since it can be a complicated topic to understand. However, understanding these differences will help you make more informed decisions about your investment portfolio. In this blog post we’ll discuss: 1) What are Treasury securities? 2) What does the term “interest rate” mean for different types of Treasury securities? 3) How do I calculate interest on my investment? 4) Why are rates not all the same across all types of Treasuries and what affects them? 5) Who makes money off of me when I invest in Treasuries and how much do they get paid per year from the government? 6) What happens if I want to cash out from a Treasury early? The first question we will answer is: What are treasury securities? Treasury Securities, sometimes called US government bonds or T-bonds, are loans of money that the U.S. Government takes from other countries and then pays back with interest over a certain period of time. For example, if I invest in a two year bond at an annual rate of 0.25% per year my investment would be worth $100 after two years because I am getting paid $0.25 each month until it matures (I get all my funds back plus the interest). The next thing to understand is what does “interest rates” mean for different types of treasuries? Interest rates refer to how much money you earn on your investment every year
