Conservative ETF and Mutual Fund Recommendations?

I just want to beat inflation. I’m a conservative investor and this would be in addition to the 12 month emergency fund I already have saved. Roth IRA and HSA are already maxed out and making decent contributions to 401K. Have a Vanguard brokerage account so looking at the Wellington fund (VWELX) and the Wellesley (VWINX). I figured actively managed may lead to a less bumpy ride. Would love any other suggestions you all may have.

FASMX its a 50/50 stock bond mutual fund fairly conservative or you could go FBALX which is 75 stock/ 25 bond. I personally go all FZROX but I wouldn’t advise that if you want more conservative

Read what Warren Buffet said about Vanguards S&P 500 Admiral shares fund, VFIAX. He advised to get in it and never get out.

Presuming this is money that is not intended for retirement and for short to mid-term use. You just don't want it to crash. I use Wellington for that very purpose.
