To me, look into commercial real estate investments like REITs in a property class you’ve researched. Full disclosure—to a hammer everything looks like a nail, and all my investments are in real estate funds where I’m also a principal, but if you don’t want to go totally into it, REITs are a good option.

Also, best brokerages? Thank you!

Getting crushed in one year is irrelevant to me. It will be fine going forward. In less you were planning to spend your whole portfolio in one year, I don’t think it matters

Everyone has a different perspective on this but would love to hear yours. Someone has debt ranging say 4-5% interest rates. Do you attack debt more then investing to move towards a debt free life or do you go after investments since they return historically above that then paying down closer towards retirement. I know the latter looks better on paper but what about the psychological factors of being debt free and the guaranteed return on interest savings.

Is life insurance a priority to anyone at the moment, and if so why is life insurance important to you?

It can be impossible to deal with financial losses due to declining health or unforeseen circumstances by not having life insurance. In these cases, the solution to your debts (that can affect the financial stability of you or your loved ones) may fall within the category of life insurance.

Great question! And without getting too much into monetary policy.... Fed rates are set by the Federal Reserve which banks use to charge each other to borrow money. A lot of times these rates move together, however, a Fed rate increase does not instantaneously change the rates the bank offers.

Other types of savings account have seen an increase this year such as online savings accounts and fixed annuities.
