I dont disagree, but nothing about what you have said invalidates what I had stated. Set it and forget it is the point. Give it to your grandkids.

Set it and forget it is the point. Give it to your grandkids.

You could do the same with shares in Berkshire or a S&P index fund, to better effect.

Especially at the scale of "national economy", if you're betting on Treasuries you are effectively betting on the economy as a whole. Just at a lower potential yield.
