Overview: Government bonds are a mainstay of many savers and long-term investors because they carry the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The problem is, they can pay low returns relative to other investments, and risk being outpaced by inflation. Hence, investors who use bonds to save for retirement or for their children's education may experience an investment shortfall, due to the erosive effect of inflation.
