You’re on EliteTrader here.
Stocks of course.

Why bother with anything else,
Less liquid, less returns and lesser known

Stick to your lane.

1 million is nothing by the way.
Stocks aren’t just for 10k gamblers.

This is a silly question. It depends on the entire portfolio, aggregate exposure, status of other investments, opportunity costs, AND percent the amount represents overall.

This is a question as if it were someone else money, like a professional sell side or even buy side, analysts.

That being said, I like USD for now. Eyeing Euro, CAD, and the S&P on a capitulation trouncing for a swing trade and reestablishing long term stock buy and hold. Same with real estate, watching for the maximum EXPECATION, of prices going lower.

Anyone with 7 digits that is "accredited" knows the game is long, and risk management trumps everything.

If you have earned 7 digits, you have been through enough, you know that it is not something to "toss" around. Those who have not, are always quick to deploy, chase and otherwise be that "fool and their money that are quickly (eventually), departed"

If I just have 1 mil laying around, I would just put it in QYLD for the 11-15% annual yield.

I bought 300 shares of that to put into my kids account in May 2021 at $22.52. Current price is $16.31. It's paid out $1024.49 in dividends, but lost $1864 in value.

Divys have been shrinking. We're now looking at 8.8% divy yield on our original investment.

For an investment with multi-year horizon I would use a 70/30 stock/bond investment. Currently using SH/TBF, at other times SPY/GOVT.

a lot of those “income through options” funds are scams. Eventually the market turns down and they start dipping into principle to pay the “income”

Where you will invest will largely depend on your age. If you're approaching retirement, you obviously want to be conservative. But most of you who are touting guns and ammos will be broke before you retire anyway so pay no attention.

IT's possible;
but someone that wants to ''retire''-- most likely never found their calling, or a business\work that they loved.
Of course ,unless one is a gun DEALER/ BETTER GET MORE THAN 2=GUNS + AMMO.......................................................

Where do you think your money is the safest today with a multi-year outlook?

Hello unconventional wisdom,

Awesome question.

For me.

1. $1.5 Million and dollar cost average in the SP500 index over the next +20 years. The markets goes one way, up, since the 1900s.

2. $250,000to trade the ES futures. Trading the ES is so fun day to day. I love it.

3. $250,000 cash.

thanks everyone for participating in the poll.

i'm not surprised that stocks is the number 1 pick. and i'm also not surprised to see that cash ranked high. what surprises me about the poll is that so many chose real estate (rental income) - second place after stocks. it wasn't discussed at all in the thread, and it seems almost common knowledge that real estate may correct sharply. anyone that voted for real estate care to elaborate?
