When can cash savings bond?
Cash savings bonds can typically be redeemed after a minimum holding period, which is usually one year. However, if redeemed before five years, there is often a penalty that forgoes interest earned for the last three months.

Always ensure you understand the conditions before cashing in savings bonds.
What are some reasons why people should consider I Bonds?
I Bonds, or Individual savings bonds, also called Series I savings bonds, are savings bonds that are issued through the United States Department of Treasury. They are guaranteed to never lose value. I bonds are started with a 1 year minimum hold time, and the bond can not be released. They also have a penalty of three months of interest rate if they are redeemed before 5 years. After 5 years the penalty for redemption will end. In times of inflation the I bond will accrue interest. This interest can be earned for up to 30 years. When the bond is redeemed, let's say in 30 years, one will get the original amount invested and all of the interest accrued over the 30 years.
