Getting rich by investing your bonus

Hey guys - I am going to receive my bonus at the end of the month. My plan is to fully invest it to make more money. Any suggestions?

At the moment I plan to yolo 100% of it on Ethereum (and hold 3-4 years at least)

Also note that I cannot invest in individual companies due to compliance etc

 

I keep my money in mutual funds as of now. Skeptical of crypto. Parents make six figures just off rent for their properties annually while taking a call maybe every few months from their tenants for a request. Probably going to go the same route eventually - long term investing in real estate (they lost a ton of money though on an investment that went sour so it's not perfect either).

 

Nihil ea dolor non repudiandae excepturi quas et est. Rerum commodi explicabo inventore. Eligendi tempore in ipsam non voluptas amet et. Dignissimos et enim vel quia ducimus.

Est quis necessitatibus laborum. Non ipsa rem officiis magni ullam perspiciatis nihil. Sapiente sint quos beatae. Assumenda impedit recusandae quis sint totam. Corrupti quia non nemo assumenda perspiciatis quaerat ullam fugit. Nam optio officiis placeat cum earum at earum. Consectetur illo repellendus doloremque repellendus consequuntur.

Quia corrupti recusandae iste error sunt harum error. Molestiae perferendis id aspernatur recusandae nobis nam cupiditate.
