Will we soon be "paying" to have our funds invested in U.S. Treasury Bills?

I just noticed on Google Finance that the yield on a 3 month treasury bill is now down to .01%.

3 Month

0.01%

Given the trend, it might well be that the yield will go down to -.01%, (yes, MINUS) meaning that we’ll end up paying to have our funds invested in what’s, supposedly, the world’s safest short-term financial instrument.

I know, that will not happen. But, still, these are very interesting times for investors.
