Bond ETF

Probably one of the most underrated form of investing are bonds. They are often looked as boring and for seniors. Not exactly true. It takes a bit of research, education and patience to make real returns with bonds. It used to take a great deal of capital to get started in bond investing. But, Bond ETFs have changed that. Bond ETFs trade like stocks and offer exposure to things like California Municipal Bonds, Junk Bonds, Treasuries, etc..
