Today is first of December. Last fall we had the Andrews deal. It was the only blowout CD deal of fall of 2016. Unless something surfaces darn soon . . and I mean both time and 2017 are rapidly running out . . this year's GTE deal is once again gonna be a one off. One stinkin' deal. Two stinkin' blowout deals in two years. Gotta tell you I am disappointed. I am also surprised because I thought there would be more great deals. I shouldn't be surprised, because I realize I'm clueless when it comes to this stuff. But I'm still surprised.
Instead of a few great, blowout, CD deals we have large numbers of little short-term chicken**** deals that really pay only cheapskate interest. Stinks. Still happy I did the Bellco Index Advantage in 2017. That would have been a blowout opportunity, but for the parsimonious $125k cap. But looking real good anyway, especially if rate hike comes through.
