My wife and I make 250K before taxes annually. What are some solid ways we can invest?
We own stock in: Apple, Amazon, Disney, Crwd, JPM, Visa, RTX, CZR, Google, Coinbase, Uber, PayPal, Lyft, Drafkings, Bank of America, and SOFI. Investments have taken a big hit since Biden took office.
What should we be doing with our money?
Most of my friends own rental property but I’ve always been scared to dive into that.

Hold the stocks, save and average down during the next 18 months.
Housing market crash would be the most opportune time to buy some rental property.

Without knowing percentages it is hard to say and based on your post sounds like you are not actively involved. Your current holdings are pretty tech heavy, but once again hard to know what % weight is on each.
The most prudent way is to diversify into low-cost broad index funds.

that is what i have. but you can have RE, stocks, bonds, do lending, trading, etc. you do not have to do one thing. do you want cash flow or just growth? both? money you can touch now or only once you are 59.5?
here read this. problem right now is high prices and lower RTV. was great from 2013 to 2017. then started changing as prices exploded.

Invest 20% of your gross income in a total market index fund and enjoy your retirement

Stop buying individual stocks and buy total market funds as others have recommended.

Please take this advice. Single stocks are high risk and high reward. You will sleep better at night if you understood why a balanced, low cost, appropriately allocated, index based portfolio is the most efficient, highest probability chance at capturing good to very good returns over a long-term.
I would advocate reading up on John “Jack” Bogles books and “Bogleheads Guide to Investing”.

MTBCP (Carecloud) pays ~10% dividend and hasn't missed in years. Price rarely ever changes

Got it thanks. Going to put 14k in VTSAX in February.

Not that you couldn’t reverse engineer the URL, but WCI store link to the men’s version of that shirt.

You’re right, I wouldn’t be posting from a cardboard box right now if I went to college

It sounds like you don't actively track your stocks as most of these have taken a big hit for a long time now and were easy targets given the interest rate hikes. If you aren't going to actively track your investments (with things like stop losses if appropriate), then long term the odds are much higher that you'll be better off having these $ invested in index funds instead and just "set it and forget it".
