Well time flies and I'm going to be an uncle sometime next month. My sister and her s.o. are expecting a baby girl. I will be attending the shower (I know, I know but it's coed). As far as gifts go, I'm still undecided. Do people still buy US bonds for newborns? I don't know much about them. Is the economy so bad that something like that isn't worth buying? (don't even know if they actually do have an effect haha). How much do they cost? Where do I buy them? Should I even purchase? Do they grow much over a long period of time? I ask these questions here because I know svtp is full of ballers. So ballers, what say you?
