The simple, safe, profitable way to help realize these goals is to buy Canada Savings Bonds, They offer an excellent return. The average yield to maturity is 6.75% a year. There are fourteen annual interest coupons which begin at 5.75% and rise to 7.00% for each of the last nine years. These can be cashed each year as they become due. Better still, if you choose to keep these coupons encashed, you can earn interest on your interest. Take full advantage of this option and, when your Bonds mature, your total interest earnings plus your original investment will amount to $250 for each $100 invested. They are available to everyone. Canada Savings Bonds are available to every Canadian resident in amounts from $50 up to $50,000, Tor, cash or on instalments, wherever you work, bank or invest. Adults, children, businesses and institutions—all may buy them. They are instant cash.
