There is a decimal point in there... My bank's money market accounts pay a 
princely one tenth of one percent. The CD is 2.25 and the best rate in 
town. I'm old fashioned and don't really trust those online offers. I like 
to be able to walk over to a building and talk to a human.

I bought some I bonds before that went to electronic purchase only. After 
doing nothing for years they've finally come into their own. I never did 
understand the 10k cap. The old mantra was 'invest in America; buy US 
savings bonds'.  The new one must be 'We'd rather sell debt to China.'
