Folks, if you had $1M cash to invest, where would you? Have previously invested in private placement REITs and stuff, but assume I don’t want to put more money in real estate at the moment. Many thanks Al for any recommendations.

I love all these complicated answers… that won’t outperform the market over the long term. Drop it in an index fund and leave it alone.

If you aren’t long term investing then that changes a lot.

Tesla puts? Kidding but then not really.
Private debt funds? I’m getting about 10% on these. They are funds so you aren’t at risk of losing everything with a single default.

I have $200 April 4 puts. The sales announcement is April 2. I will buy some more on Monday and target about $20 out of the money.

Right now? Dollar Cost Average over a few weeks into VTI/VOO and chill. Hell, be like Buffet and keep cash - spread it across 4 banks in HYSA with sign up bonuses. Let the chaos subside.

Right now - cash until the chaos subsides a little.

In a similar boat ( not quite as high $). Right now, I am investing mostly in bonds while I evaluate different things. A mixture of T-bills, municipal bonds, and corporate bonds. The munis and corporates are via ETFs so I can get out quickly. The T-bills are laddered but mostly short term (longest is 13 weeks).

Too shady for me. I know my countrymen…

60:40 stock:bonds vanguard fund. $1 mil liquid cash is a great problem to have!

I buy and manage my own multi family apartments.

I do, in fact, have $1m sitting in Vanguard VMFXX but just waiting until I find the right deal, after which that will be the down payment for a $2.5M - $3M purchase.

I’m in a low income tax / high property tax state, but regardless, I will take a look! Thx for the rec.

Just VOO and chill

HYSA and then buy up VOO/VIX on opportunistic down days / weeks
