Default Re: Investing in CDD Bonds

Kahuna,

:bow: :bow:

Thank you for a very knowledgeable response...the scariest part is that you don't physically have the bond in your hand and depend on FMS to pass on earnings to you. No thanks.

Like Muncle, I will look elsewhere for investment opportunities. It sounded good at first glance but upon deeper investigation seems too risky....not The Villages/CDD bonds themselves, but, the way this outfit resells them.

I've often wondered how/if you can buy CDD bonds directly from TV. I might look into this angle further.

Again, thanks Kahuna....you've probably saved several people from making an uninformed investment decision.
