    SBR to auction 30 day 100 point bonds. Your help is needed!

    Due to added expenses for the bash and heavy losses in the sportsbook SBR will auction point bonds. The SBR credit rating is A+. Void where prohibited.

    The bonds will mature 30 days from the day they are purchased at a price of 100 points(July 23rd). The starting bid will be 90 points. We will accept the highest bids on up to 500 bonds. If less than 500 bonds are bid on we will accept all bids at 90 points(even if your bid is higher). If more than 500 bonds are bid on we will accept the highest bids to fill the 500 bond offering.

    Bidding will close July 22nd at 9pm eastern. We will make a post with a list of all successful bidders. Bidders will have until 9pm to transfer their points to complete the purchase.

    State both your bid and amount of bonds you wish to buy in this thread.

    Serious bids and questions only in this thread.
    Points Awarded:

    YorkHunt gave SBR_John 2 SBR Point(s) for this post.

    Current 30 Day LIBOR is .025, I will take 8 at 90. 11% or so in thirty days, a heck of a deal.

    The main question would be is if the points will have the same value in 30 days!!! I mean if things go up just a little in the store, then this will be worthless. And posters give out better interest than this and they can pay it back in under 10 days

    Corporate bonds pay a better rate then treasuries, but people still buy treasuries. Knowing you will be paid back is priceless. There were have to be a monthly betpoints inflation of 11% or so to make this a losing proposition.

    All 500 will go at 99. Better bid higher than 90 boys.

    50000 pts to make 500 (at 99) is a no brainer since this is essentially risk free.

    Almost nothing is actually risk-free and how many people actually have 50,000 points of their own?

    Maybe next time!

    The bonds are guaranteed by the full faith and credit of SBR(SBR rating A+). I am unable to give any personal assurances.
