Coming into a little extra $$ and looking for some quasi safe investments with a decent ROI. What are people's thoughts? Thanks.
This would be the route I'd take as well. If I'm investing it, it's going in an index fund.S&P index fund - no wealth manager has outperformed the S&P more than 3 years in a row.
Crypto albeit fun is speculative at best. Toss some money in there, go for it but it isn’t a sure thing.
Index funds have minimal fees and are managed for you. Put it in and as much more as possible and leave it alone for 20-30 years.

The S&P 500 can take you further than you may think.www.fool.com
WHEN the fed stop redeeming their shares....Lol but they are set to redeem morei dont think we have seen the bottom of anything yet, stock market or btc. i would wait. BTC could see 12k
Ditto. Hard to beat the I bonds... but can only do up to $9,500 I think (per person-entity)I Bonds look pretty good at the moment. I think they are paying at ~9%ATM. Other than that, hard assets. Oil and natural gas looks like would be going up since supply will be artificailly in short supply over then next...well as long as they want it to.
You can get one $10,000 electronic bond per year and one $5,000 paper bond with your tax return. I know, it sounds weird but it's true. I wish I would have known about I Bonds 20 years ago. I would have been investing in these. Some of the financial experts are expecting I Bonds to go over 12% soon.Ditto.

Yup...I would not put it in anything! Buy something tangible, gold or silver. No matter what happens to the economy, that will always be needed.
guns and ammo also will always have value.

Crypto wayyyyy too risky IMO- where to put it, not so sure. Everything seems like shit right now.i'd put half in savings and the other half in crypto lol btc or eth.
The value I was referring to with guns and ammo has nothing to do with trading! The value would be to protect your family and take what you need if necessary. I would rather be fully prepared than miserably sorry.Gold return vs. S&P return (with and without dividends) over the past 50 years...
Gold 2,530%
S&P w/out Dividends 3,420%
S&P w/ Dividends 14,351%
Not saying this to be disrespectful but if the economy ever goes to the point where you are trading guns and ammo people will simply kill you and take your stuff. We have seen this multiple times in rural Libya, Chad, Afghanistan, the Northern region of Iraq, and coastal cities of venezuela. All relatively peaceful areas before economic collapse.
