I buy 4-week and 8-week T-Bills from Treasury Direct. It's really simple and it's possible to leave them on auto-pilot - up to 26 reinvestments allowed. But it is limited to 10k per person. If you have x5 the cash, are you buying through another means?
T-bill rates are now much lower than CDs that you can find (even after considering the no state tax benefit of t-bills). I am wondering why someone would stick with t-bills now (other than it easy through Fidelity without needing to make a new account for a CD). I am still seeing CDs at 4% for a year.
Also not sure about the $10,000 limit referenced here. That is just I-bonds not t-bills I believe (maybe automatic rollover is limited? I don’t do that).
