I asked this in the muni bond thread but got no replies so I thought I'd try a separate thread.
Does anyone invest in government agency issues like Federal National Home Loan Bank, Federal Farm Credit Bank, Federal National Mortgage Association, etc?
It looks like they pay a bit higher than Treasuries of the same duration. Are they higher risk? Are they taxed differently? My mom has owned FNMA bonds for decades and they've always done well for her.
