Where to Invest $100,000 Right Now
Most of us rang in the new year in a socially distanced way -- often, from our couches. We toasted with friends -- eggnog glasses virtually touching -- via video calls. And we were happy to put 2020 behind us. But when planning where to invest in 2021, it's important to keep that window to last year open. To be successful now and beyond, we shouldn't forget all that happened in the difficult year of 2020.

But its effect on how companies do business and how consumers operate continues. And the crisis itself continues. So, understanding this, let's talk about the best way to invest $100,000 right now. (And if you don't have that amount, you can scale down this plan to suit your budget.)
