I looked up the company and pays no dividend.

Would something like a total stock market index fund or s&p500 index be too volatile for her situation?


If it was my 60k and 60k is my total savings then I would be reluctant to invest 60k this week in VOO. The reason I would be reluctant is that I don't like buying at the high. I think VOO is at all time high.
So
I would get the 300 dollar bonus, invest in the SPAXX then buy one share a month in VOO.
Something like that. I think they call it dollar cost averaging.
quote:

Put it in a Fidelity brokerage account. They'll hold the funds in SPAXX making 3.4%


I think etrade offers a deposit bonus of approximately 300 dollars for a 60k deposit but funds must be held in account for a year.

With the SPAXX and
That 300 dollars bonus this is going to get you closer to that 5% return you wanted.

I have bought a three month t bill through charles schwab brokerage.

I like buying those t bills through charles schwab brokerage.

I also like the stock slices where I can buy five dollars worth.of stock in a company.

Some BITX is bought and sold same day, and some in days, weeks, or worst case months.


Ok got your answer same day, days, weeks and months.


It's not a buy and hold long term.
BITX is something you have to "look at" often.
I think this is a bad situation.

So you buy SOME BITX.

How long does you hold BITX before you sell?

I've made a lot of money incrementally buying BITX during pullbacks and incrementally selling on recoveries. My trading strategy especially takes advantage of Bitcoin panic buying and panic selling that creates high amplitude price swings

I’m ok with a portion of my portfolio costing me 0.63% for a product that has averaged 12.86% annually since 1967.


12 . 86 % is interesting, persuasive, and powerful
Is their any downside risk?

I am afraid of buying at the top , then VOO drops 50 percent.
The recovery time to get back to even is 6 or 7 years maybe.
I may look into dollar cost average strategy.

?? Why I Chose to Invest in VZ (Verizon Communications Inc.)

In a market where many companies are trading near all-time highs, I find myself hesitant to "buy at the top." I prefer a more value-oriented approach, seeking opportunities where the price reflects a margin of safety. Verizon (VZ) has been on my watchlist for over a year, and its recent dip below $40 per share caught my attention. To me, this represents a compelling entry point — I believe in "buying the dip" when a company meets my fundamental standards.

VZ also appeals to me as a relatively defensive asset. In uncertain economic conditions, I value stability and consistent performance, and Verizon’s seems to offer that.

Copilot helped me polish this statement lol

I guess it's more about the strategy than the money. I got some good feedback that made me think of some different strategies.

I mean its your money so i don't really care but Verizon is a dead company. Invest in innovation. AMD or Amazon will do well over what you want the next 3 years.


Thank you. I will add AMD and Amazon to my watch list.
I feel so many stocks are overpriced. It hurts me buying at the top or all time highs. lol
But anyway my order went through so I got ten shares at $38.80 each.

I'm not sure how they calculate this up 1%

But when I buy and sell it don't come out to the same percent it is coming out lower than 1 percent


I think I get how they calculate up 1% today.
I think they take yesterdays close to calculate gain today.
I can't buy the stock VZ today at yesterdays closing price. lol

 did well when it was $35 and sold most of my shares when it was $44.


I been have VZ on my watch list since 10/1/24
Then
End of March 25 and start of April 25 the VZ went above 45 a share
but now it's below 40. so being below 40 I thought that it's time to get ten shares
