The Sun’s Financial Diary is a blog of unknown parentage, but it’s one of the few financial blogs I’ve found with good information.
Yesterday’s post, T-Bill Investment Rate: Is it APR or APY? And What Is Your Taxable Equivalent Yield? is a careful comparison of the rates offered by T-Bills and a high-yield online savings account.

Virtually every question about Savings Bonds has been asked and answered on this site multiple times. Use the search feature (see the box in the gray area near the top of this page) or the detailed menu on the lower part of the home page to find the information you're looking for. If you have a copy of Savings Bond Advisor, you can ask me a question here.

Thanks for venturing into posting marketable Treasuries info, Tom!
