Public service announcement: you can invest in bonds! Think about it, you give your money to the government or a corporation and they agree to give you interest payments for a certain period of time. At the end of that period, they give back your initial investment. Doesn't sound so scary right? Well, that's the point, people don't talk about bonds enough to understand them.

Banks and media don't talk about bonds because they make their money off stocks and mutual funds. It's fun, crazy, and people feel the adrenaline. But bonds are a simple way for you to put your money to work rather than having it sit around in your bank account or even gambling with it in the stock market (especially if you don't know what you're doing). This video will help you understand how bonds work. Trust me, it's worth the watch.
