You could say that about Costco, Meijer, Microcenter, or many regional stores.

But credit unions are insured up to the same dollar limits as banks by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF) which is basically identical to FDIC insurance and backed by the full faith and credit of the US government.

There is no risk of loss putting money up to the $250k insured limit in a credit union.

Looks like it requires you to also open a Membership Savings account with them. Anyone found what the early withdrawal penalty is?

"Balance: $5,000 minimum balance - entire balance of certificate must come from funds not currently at Truliant"

Perfect way to give a finger to your current customers.

Yes, 3 months interest. You can withdraw the interest earned every month with no penalty however. Just not the principle

This means interest rates are going up. US government and Feds have no solution in sight. Inflation is here to stay.

What's maximum?
I don't think there is a limit maximum amount you could put in there, but I'll not go over $250k because FDIC insured up to 250k.

Quote from rhaxter :
I disagree; people have different financial goals. I bond Rates have fallen, but the November rate is expected to be around 4.5 percent, which is higher than the current I bond rate. And the November rate has a fixed rate projection of around 1.5 percent, which may be worth considering if you are planning to hold long term.

17 and 26 week T-Bills are at about 5.5% and likely headed somewhat higher. Until we reach the point where rates start to decline (not likely anytime soon imo), there is no reason to chase long term I-bonds or CDs imo. I-bonds time has passed since they are not returning as much as T-bills (or money markets at this point). If you don't need the liquidity, buying 17 or 26 week T-bills (which are state and local tax free if you live in a state with an income tax) are the better investment. Set up a T-bill ladder and auto renewals and you can just sit back and let them make money for you risk free until such time as you see interest rates about to fall and then you look to lock in some longer term CDs.

My 2 cents.

Likely isn't unless you live in a free state with no income tax like Florida or Texas and figure rates are not headed up much more in the next year. Even then, it is marginal at best and likely not worth your effort imo.
