If I bought a 30yr $50 treasury bond today, what does that mean? What would be the return on my investment? My tax program is offering an option to purchase bonds out of tax refunds and I don’t know anything about them. I’m wondering if it is worth putting a couple hundred dollars into some treasury bonds.

These are NOT good investments. If that bond you bought is a EE it pays 1.2% interest. Wow, what a deal! If it is an I bond it pays 3.4% interest. That is not bad and it is inflation adjusted semi-annually.

the state borrows money from people, they do this via state bonds.
a bond is a contract between a person that has money and an organisation that needs money.
the person who has money gives it to the organisation needing money, the organisation needing money pays a set interestrate defined in the contract. at the end of the contract the person gets his money back. (plus he has the interest that he already accuired yearly)at the moment, with high inflation and low interestrates, bonds are not quite an interesting investment. they give a low yield while the value depreciation of your money (due to inflation) probably outweighs this yield.
many people are hedging their money in gold to prevent this at the moment. thats why the gold price is so high. wether gold is a right investment at the time is up to you to decide.

Stay away of these treasury bonds, they are far below the rate of inflation you will lose everything.
buying treasury bonds that pays ~1% or even 3% is too much of a risk when the government is printing money. the U.S government has too much debt and can not repay it the only way it could pay is by printing money (increasing the money supply), this would lead to inflation (reduction of purchasing power). inflation will force higher interest rates which will lower the price of bonds.
for example: lets say you buy bonds for $50 and the bond returns 10% (5 dollar coupon) if interest rate goes to 20% the stock price will have to go down to $25 in order for the 5 dollar coupon to become 20% otherwise no one will buy it. -

They can be a good investment for safety and a hedge against the economy. Treasuries returned more than 20 percent in 2008. Its a good thing to have some in your portfolio.
