I have $40k i'm looking at put into ibonds in 2024 and 2025. Or I could put it into treasuries or CDs. What would people suggest doing?
We are not RE, and our timeline looks more like 2028-2034 depending on when DH wants to go.
Currently I have 2018-2023 $10k each for DH and I myself I bought ibonds. I have been building a ladder. I also have $30k in MM as our EF and $20k in slush funds that pay for stuff throughout the year.
I'm going to add another $30k in cash to our slush funds for spending, and more to our taxable account. But i was thinking of earmarking $40k for the next two years for ibonds?
Good or bad idea? Would that help when we decide to RE? We are 44 and 45 years old. I'm picturing maybe at 50.
