Elroy, The Tips Auction question is a good one. True, the rate will keep pace with reported inflation, but so should T-Bill rates.

The other question I have is why ING Bank would pay more on deposits than what they would pay to borrow from Fed Funds? The answer is, I believe, a loss leader that provides them with access to a potential pigeon, er, customer and his other long term financial needs.
