If you are saving for retirement or just looking for a safe way to invest, bonds are a good choice.  Your money is fairly safe and you will make a decent profit.  Bonds are similar to an IOU; they are purchased for a certain period of time and at the end you get your money back, but in between you earn interest that is paid at regular intervals.  Bonds are issued by the government, government agencies, states, cities, public authorities and corporations.  Government issued Treasury bonds make up the largest percentage of the market.  If you are planning to buy bonds the best time to do so is when interest rates are high.  At that time bond are cheaper and the return on your investment is higher.  Adams discusses terminology used in bond investing, types of bonds and gives readers tips on how and when to buy them.  A good read for anyone looking for ways to invest and save.  Great job!
