Value of Short-Term Certificates of Deposit?

One thing that has surprised me over the years is the popularity of short-term CDs. Several of my friends and colleagues would never consider CDs with maturities over one year.

The U.S. economy added just 22,000 jobs in August, less than economists had expected, the  Bureau of Labor Statistics  reported Friday.
