My weird wife keeps bugging me about her wanting to buy
some type of "bonds." Apparently, a few Korean banks are really trying to push the idea of buying these on customers, offering free trips to Cheju-Do or gift certificates.
Does anyone know what the hell this is all about?

Is it a good idea?
Any info??

Is she referring to government bonds? They are regarded as a safe investment during times of financial uncertainty.

You buy bonds and you have a chance of winning a prize
