Is Now a Good Time to Redeem Your I Bond?

Back in 2022 when inflation was through the roof, we were able to buy I Bonds, or inflation bonds, with a 9.6% return! Now though, the rate of return is just over 3%. In this video, Peter with Richon Planning and Erin Kennedy discuss whether investors should redeem those I Bonds and invest in something else.

The short answer is yes. There are several places you can put your money right now that are considered “low risk” and still have a higher rate of return than 3%. That being said, if you sell your I Bond before its 5-year maturity date, you will lose the last 3 months’ interest.

If you’d like to crunch the numbers with Peter, and discuss alternate investments, please call (919) 300 – 5886 or visit www.RichonPlanning.com
