Three Random Thoughts

posted by [personal profile] selkie at 08:02pm on 02/12/2005
My wife's gravy is damn tasty. We may be broke, but we aren't starving.

Somehow even completely broke we're managing to have a busy weekend this, er, weekend.

If 7.5% interest is compounded semi-annually on $250, how much is that?

About $37 a year. I think.

*adds in head* 14 years * $37 = We don't have to cancel Christmas this year!

I love the Public Debt.

It turns out only to be $200, but we can guestimate.

You see, I have $200 in Series EE bonds that matured 6 months after their issue date -- in 1988 and 1989. The Public Debt's website tells me that these bonds compound their interest semiannually at a rate between 6% and 7.5%,

*glee*

NO MORE BROKE FOR SELKIE!
