Knowing What A Certificate of Deposit (CD) Is All About
I was sitting down with my boyfriend's family the other day when I overheard them discussing something about the present CD rates at banks.
With much curiosity, I asked my (future) mother-in-law what these "CDs" are all about. I first thought that they were talking about compact discs but when I caught the words "rates at the banks" got me so much confused. Anyway with much patience, she explained it a bit to me.
A CD actually refers to "Certificate of Deposit" which comes with a maturity date, a fixed interest and is mostly issued by commercial banks.
Well well... so there went my Saturday lecture from my boyfriend's mom. I actually should thank her for implanting this new knowledge into this tiny brain of mine.

Hi Maxi!:)
ReplyDeleteI had no idea about this either. The only CD I know of is Compact Disc, but now I know more than one.
There's no way your brain can be tiny. Besides, it takes a lot of brains to figure out creative ways to blug me as long as you have! Hehehe.
Always a pleasure to visit you my dear blugging friend!:)
Thank you for dropping by and sharing some love! You're lovely!
