    option income is pretty much guaranteed vs dividends/growth. when market goes sideways or trending down, the income will make you less crazy. i guess i'm just into yield. maybe reinvest half, and other half fund other things. it's like your cash mine

  3. A multi-year outlook.....Who cares about that lifetime away timeframe. Is this place EliteInvestor,
    I would choose none of those listed options.

    I would continue to trade that $1mm in the market. One Day....at a, Time...,

    World War is coming so it depends on where you are. Most likely it will be in the Europe theatre as it always is so buying land/real estate in the middle of a warzone is worthless. Ask Ukrainians how much their land is worth after 7 months of war.

    The safest is still US Dollar & Gold. As long as international trade is still in dollars it will continue rising. A war in Europe and/or South Asia means more money flow to the US.

    The question is moot. Is this the only $1m or is this your cash in hand? Having a rental income buffers the low.

    Do you really think WW3 would be limited to Europe?
    If shit hits the roof, we are all screwed, anywhere.

  9. It‘s a hypothetical question, unfortunately. I don’t think I’ve ever had so much uncertainty about the financial markets/world as I do right now. I trade a bit and also invest each month- right now my vote was cash and diversified stocks (etfs). Also looking at copper and nuclear power etfs.

    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.
