$500k to invest for two years where?

[keyboardworkout]

I need a safe low risk place to put $500k for two years.

About to sell my house and will pocket $500k cash. Plan to rent for a couple of years then buy again.

Any ideas?

two years is long enough that I'd put it in stocks of my choice (VOO or QQQ default)

Id all in BTC, or at least half. 99% chance btc hits 100,000 by EOY. Double your money.

There are a lot of people that think the market will continue its bull run. A lot of others think there will be a major downturn soon. If you have 500K cash you have to question the idea of putting it as a down payment for anything.

If you put 500K into the S&P500 and it grows by 8% over the next 10 years. And you add nothing to it. You're looking at 1.1 million. If you add just $500 per month to it, every month 1.2 million.

Now lets assume you don't buy the S&P and find a fund that will get you closer to 12% interest. What are you looking at in 10 years? Assuming you put in the 500 per month as well 1.7 million. In 20 years however, its 5.9 million.


At a certain point you need to decide where you want your life to go. I wouldn't make a 'short term' investment with 500K. But if your willing to hold long term, I'd go with a decent ETF. For me it would be an ARK fund.

I'm betting there is going to be a big downturn in real estate prices in my area in about two years. My plan is to use the $500k to buy again. That's why I am looking for a two year investment.

My house has just overtaken its 2007 value again. By 2010, it was half that. My area is at the top again and it's not sustainable. "Experts" give my area 12-18 months before another real estate crash.

you plan on buying and flipping or renting? Real estate is a big pain in the ass man unless you can do renovation work and flip. Renting is a huge pain.

I'm going to rent for a couple of years. I've been divorced for a year now and don't need much.

with that much money id put it in an index fund like vanguard or some major tech stocks like apple, msft, etc. Guaranteed returns over a year without a lick of work.

All-in on bloat

I bought her out and got the house and the dog in the divorce.

She was nice enough to hide $100k from me in a checking account I didn't know she (we) had among other things.

Are you sure you don't want to invest in your ex wife? Would love that for her (ded fkn notsrs)

[BullittEV]

15% Tesla, SpaceX when it comes out

20% Bio tech (BNGO, PACB, ILMN)

20% Healthcare (JJ, MODERNA, PFE, etc..)

10% exchanges (V, MA, AMEX)

2.5% bitcoin stock for the exposure(GBTC correlates pretty well)

10% tech (AMD, APPL, NVIDIA)

5% on derivates (options, covered calls, take a few long term risks)

Leave the rest ready to buy on large dips/recession.

Keep it as cash. Time frame is too short to risk losing a big portion of your house payments.
