James A. Klotz responds:
You can learn more about tax-free bonds by spending some time on our Web site. You might want to start with “Bond Basics” and also review some of our commentaries and strategies.
In the bottom right hand corner of our home, there is a box entitled “Buying Bonds Online“, which explains the process of opening an account and making a purchase.
At this point, most newcomers find it helpful to call the E-Desk at 800-FMS-BOND (367-2663). You can then be connected with one of our bond specialists who will be pleased to answer any of your questions and help you select bonds that are right for you.
Start here.
Do you have specific criteria for bonds you’re looking for? Let us know and we’ll e-mail you bonds that fit your needs. There is no charge for this service.
