### Comment:
Well, I'm here to learn  
  
 I'm steering clear of it until I basically feel confident enough to understand it. Until then, I'm just asking questions.  
  
 I guess my question is, if I buy a bond on premium while interest rates are still positive, then an economy goes to shit and interest rates go negative, what effect, if any, does it carry on the bond, the bond holders, and the bond issuers (the government).

### REPLY:
The price of current bonds increases. The holders of those bonds make money. 
  
 And the servicing of debt for the us treasury is easier.

### END.
