Buy T-Bills .. simple transaction online through Treasury Direct .. pays about 4.75% - 5.25% NO State Taxes on your investment income. Minimum investment is $1000 / month .. you can invest 4-weeks, 13-weeks, or 28-weeks. Get a substantial savings, then hit your local library for Money Magazine and Kiplingers.. Save some Money!! GL
