Where do you park your bonus?

Hi guys,

Curious what everyone's thoughts and actions are in terms of parking their bonuses or savings in today's ennvironment?

What do you do personally to grow the pot (as opposed to shrink) or what helpful advise have you heard recently?

To kick it off, I'm maxing pension and may park some in a fixed income fund for a bit until have a better plan. Keeping an eye on RE as well. How about you guys?

Cheers

First 10k will go into an I Bond.

$5k into Bitcoin / Ethereum.

Rest will go into $SHV which invests in short-term treasuries. There is a minimal expense ratio for it but I think it's worth it for the liquidity and auto reinvestment. Also I can keep my money in my brokerage account and not wire to Treasury Direct / other site which I like.

Once time, will move from $SHV into $VOO.
