Summer 2006 – Start Smart: Money Management for Teens Savings Bonds: A Safe and Affordable Investment Option U.S. Savings Bonds are investments that are backed by the federal government and offer a safe, easy way for teens (and anyone else) to save for the future. Savings Bonds are affordable—you can buy a bond electronically through the U.S. Treasury for as little as $25 or purchase a paper bond from a local bank starting at $50. Savings Bonds also pay interest rates that are competitive with other forms of saving. And you will always get your money back, unlike with stocks and certain other investments. For more information, go to www.treasurydirect.gov or call toll-free 1-800-4US-BOND, which is 1-800-487-2663.
