US Treasury Bills

By Terry Savage on May 17, 2026 | Chicken Money

With so much uncertainty I really don’t know what to beleive when our present government says things aboutt the Iran war or anything else. I was thinking to buy one month US Treasury Bill.
Is it safe to buy thru the US Treasury Department? Will my funds be available /released when my Treasury Bill matures?
thank you

Treasury bills are the safest investment in the world! That’s what the world thinks!
But you’ll want to buy a 3-month T-bill (18 weeks) unless you have more immediate need for the money. If that’s the case, just leave it in a bank moneymarket fund.
Here’s how to buy T-bills:
