Hi Ken, I have not been able to buy these (I bonds) at banks or brokearges. I call the 800 # which was on the web site but that only gives quotes. Can yu tell me how where could one buy these? I suppose I could put in on credit card by prepaying my credicard in advance.

Also, if one holds these for long term say 5-30years would that be long term cap gains or ordinary income?
i.e. 20% or 40% ? Could these be stepped up ?
Never bot bonds in my life. Is it too late now for I-B?
