Yes and good luck finding a 8% treasury (and please let me know if you do) ๐Ÿ˜†

The DOW grew 25% over the last year.

The S&P grew 30%

The NASDAQ grew 35%

What are you doing buying 8% Treasury Bonds?

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

Exactly. But keep in mind that those are different things. Treasury bonds carry very little risk of losing money whereas investing in index funds/ETFs can lose you money.
