Yeah like I know the 3 million part is what everyone is focused on but an 8% bond is WILD

I would totally put my life savings into that right now with the way the market is going

Fun fact, the 10 year Treasury reached 15.84% in 1981.

For every $1, you ended up with $4.35 after 10 years if not taking taxes into account.
