What are some good resources for beginning bond investors?
I am not comfortable investing in stocks and am told that investing in bonds is a fairly safe way to keep savings from being eaten by inflation. How does one get started in this? I am a do-it-yourself kind of person, don't want an advisor or a big investment company taking a percentage of earnings. Thank you. (P.S. What's up with Mahalo dollars? Can't buy any more.)
