What do I put my $ in now

Just invest in regular stocks besides your 401k
Safe up for a downpayment on some rental properties, buy gold, just put your money towards stuff you are educated on and don‘t gamble on stuff you don‘t know anything about

Gold?!

what % is that?

So far im leaning towards buying her a small place so I don’t have to sink money into renting her a place and can at least get some equity.

My husband, who had a successful career but is not yet 40, wants to retire and look after our kids while actively investing our money. I enjoy consulting and will gladly keep working. We also have a good amount of savings, mostly fueled by our frugality during his peak earning years. I feel like I need to support my husband’s dreams while negotiating clear terms. Has anybody been down a similar path and have advice?
